Promoting good governance through digital tools
This talk will first outline the weaknesses of public data on government contracts across Europe and how a recent large-scale research project unlocked troves of such administrative data for promoting civil society oversight of government. It will also offer insights into ongoing research about how electronic government tools such as online tender advertisement can combat corruption in weak governance developing country contexts.
