The Impact

Any nation on the planet that wishes to achieve meaningful success must embark on developmental endeavors. They are responsible for maintaining a peaceful sociopolitical environment for their people. It does, however, differ significantly by region and place. Utilizing democratic jargon in news bulletins helps to criticize the stance and provide the public with literary satire. The aim of this research is to show the impact of 'Open Data' on the development of news bulletins. The OD analysis helps news marketers to ascertain the degree to which their bulletin captures the interest of audiences. Pakistan's economy is insufficient to provide the standard of security needed by its citizens. Numerous strategies have been emphasized to achieve this aim, enabling the government to prioritize its people' health. The open data scheme, which allows widespread access to databases, is one of these crucial advancements within Pakistan's architecture. There are online repositories that motivate their users to achieve greater success in existence. It improves their ability to read and comprehend and teaches them to think creatively. Additionally, it allows them to hone their ability to learn and make the requisite compromises to maximize the potential of their talents. Although there is some pressure to use private data sources, it is critical to remember that not all data is safe. As a consequence, individuals must capture and use this type of clear data. The thesis evaluates the benefits and drawbacks of using current data systems inside the newsroom in order to determine their effect on Pakistan's political communication. The use of open data in news analysis allows journalists to work more efficiently; it is important to have immediate access to each item of news. In other words, these structures allow national institutions to operate with a high degree of accountability. Thus, the possibility of encountering an element of inequality in a world capable of wreaking havoc is extremely remote. Open data models are important for innovation and creativity to accelerate. It has been shown that it was instrumental in establishing a trend of revolutionary development that was fuelled by the provision of these facilities. Five privately owned news organizations with the highest scores were selected to gather data. A critical conversation was held to ascertain the words they used to attract interest.

E-government involves the use of latest skills by the government while providing the services and other information management systems to its citizens. Open data refers to the openness of all the data related to government to its citizens so that the government becomes more and more transparent and to decrease negative activities. Transparency refers to the clear and clean image of a government towards its people, which increases the trust of people on their government. The motive of this study is to analyze the impact of e-government adoption and open government data on transparency in ASEAN countries. Two control variables i.e. literacy rate and corruption have also been used in the study. The past literature has also been discussed in literature review section of this study. In order to conduct research, data about the concerned variables of the study has been collected from ASEAN countries consisting of 29 years. After applying several tests and approaches for research purpose, the two major hypotheses of this study are accepted along with the impact of a control variable, corruption. However, the impact of other control variable i.e. literacy rate has been rejected. There are various theoretical, practical and policy making benefits that will increase the transparency.

The Impact

The research is focused on the role of two related key concepts, namely variables and data, in the impact evaluations of public projects. A difficult task of the evaluators and researchers is to select the appropriate variables to ensure the best model of reality and satisfy the evaluation methods' needs. Therefore, the paper aims to look at the current knowledge and discuss how variables and data could be best used to connect the evaluation models, the particularities of the intervention with the potential of the advanced quantitative assessment methods. The results emphasise that evaluations operate with data with different levels of granularity, as required by the intervention logic. Structuring data in clusters and categories, performing evaluability assessments are useful in assessing data quality and limitations and improving them. In line with the existing literature, we demonstrate that data accessibility is a key constraint and imposes adjustment of the desired evaluation model to a feasible one. While Big Data and Open Data systems significantly improved data quality in evaluations in recent years, blockchain, as a ledger technology with default features related to decentralisation and security, is expected to bring large benefits to evaluation. For evaluators and policymakers, blockchain potential is an area of further research looking for additional advantages that could enhance the use of quantitative methods.

AbstractThe importance of the working document is that it allows the analysis of information and cases associated with (SARS-CoV-2) COVID-19, based on the daily information generated by the Government of Mexico through the Secretariat of Health, responsible for the Epidemiological Surveillance System for Viral Respiratory Diseases (SVEERV). The information in the SVEERV is disseminated as open data, and the level of information is displayed at the municipal, state and national levels. On the other hand, the monitoring of the genomic surveillance of (SARS-CoV-2) COVID-19, through the identification of variants and mutations, is registered in the database of the Information System of the Global Initiative on Sharing All Influenza Data (GISAID) based in Germany. These two sources of information SVEERV and GISAID provide the information for the analysis of the impact of (SARS-CoV-2) COVID-19 on the population in Mexico. The first data source identifies information, at the national level, on patients according to age, sex, comorbidities and COVID-19 presence (SARS-CoV-2), among other characteristics. The data analysis is carried out by means of the design of an algorithm applying data mining techniques and methodology, to estimate the case fatality rate, positivity index and identify a typology according to the severity of the infection identified in patients who present a positive result. for (SARS-CoV-2) COVID-19. From the second data source, information is obtained worldwide on the new variants and mutations of COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2), providing valuable information for timely genomic surveillance. This study analyzes the impact of (SARS-CoV-2) COVID-19 on the indigenous language-speaking population, it allows us to provide information, quickly and in a timely manner, to support the design of public policy on health.

Open Data is a new concept that the Canadian Government is using to encourage civic engagement, to promote economic growth, and as a means of supporting transparency and accountability within the government.  Our research addresses the extent to which the Canadian Open Government initiative, specifically the publishing of open data, has impacted the general public. While emerging research on open data suggests that there is a problem with data literacy levels among citizens, it does not acknowledge the public’s opinion about the relevance of data literacy and open government to their own lives. In order to address this gap, we gathered 42 responses from an anonymous electronic survey that employed both qualitative and quantitative methods to assess the opinions of a portion of the Canadian public. We discovered that there are several factors that enable or impede the initiative’s ability to achieve its stated goals of transparency, accountability, and collaboration for the general public—the public’s data literacy levels, clarity of the data, and awareness of the initiative are a few of the most prominent. The results of the study provide further insight into the public’s opinion on open data, their perceived data literacy skills, and the impact the open data initiative has on their lives.

COVID-19 remains a threat to the entire world. In an attempt to curb its spread and facilitate its treatment, the technological tool that is Artificial Intelligence (AI) is being researched as a potential alternative to conventional methods. Industrial Revolution 4.0 marks the dawn to the combination of digital, physical and biological systems, by application of digital skills such as Blockchain, Internet of things, Artificial Intelligence and Big data. AI tools in SARS-COV-2 pandemic are highly competitive to human performance, such as rapid screening and diagnosis of the disease, surveilling the efficacy of the treatment, keeping record and depicting active cases and mortality, inventions of medications and vaccines, relieving the workload of healthcare workers and extinguishing the spread of the disease. Contact tracing platforms like Aarogya Setu App, implemented by the Government of India, Australian Government's COVID Safe app, Trace Together- a Bluetooth-based contact tracing app developed in Singapore; based on syndromic mapping/surveillance technology. Artificial intelligence will become a mainstay in both the diagnosis and treatment of COVID-19 as well as similar pandemics in future. The application and system development will be challenging; the accuracy and rapidity of its use far outweigh this drawback. The current global technological leaders have proven that the retro modification of current data systems and applications have been indispensable in the war on COVID-19, thus permanently securing their development and application in future.

The article deals with economic sanctions and their impact on the state and prospects of the neighboring partner economies - the European Union (EU) and Russia. It provides comparisons of current data with that of the year 2013 (before sanctions) to demonstrate the impact of sanctions on both sides. Despite the fact that Russia remains the EU’s key partner, it came out of the first three partners of the EU. The current economic recession is caused by different reasons, not only by sanctions. Both the EU and Russia have internal problems, which the sanctions confrontation only exacerbates. The article emphasizes the need for a speedy restoration of cooperation.

The Impact

The Swiss Armed Forces (SAF), as part of a democratic system, depends on legitimacy. Democracy, legitimacy and the public are closely connected. In the public sphere the SAF need to be visible; it is where they are controlled and legitimated by the citizens, as part of a deliberative discussion in which political decisions are communicatively negotiated. Considering this, the meaning of political communication, including the SAF’s communication, becomes obvious as it forms the most important basis for political legitimation processes. Social media provide a new way for the SAF to communicate and interact directly with the population. The SAF’s social media communication potentially brings it closer to the people and engages them in a dialogue. The SAF can become more transparent and social media communication may increase its reputation and legitimacy. To measure the effects of social media communication, a survey of the Swiss internet population was conducted. Based on this data, a structural equation model was defined, the effects of which substantiate the assumption that the SAF benefits from being on social media in terms of broadening its reach and increasing legitimacy values.
