To simplify the buildup of fo_gdt the main language of communication for the time being will be English. fo_gdt has been initiated by Andreas Amsler. More info about me you find on my LinkedIn and Twitter profiles.
But fo_gdt is not about me personally, it starts with three questions:
- What is the purpose of government?
- What is the purpose of government services?
- What is the purpose of government digital services?
Today it is not yet defined what fo_gdt will develop into. First I need to know, if you are willing to discuss these (and related) questions with me and others – in the open.
Drop your answers on twitter mentioning the question number and using the hashtag #fo_gdt. Here are my current answers:
- Q1: Ensure a secure space with equally shared rights and duties for the benefit of a prosperous society and economy #fo_gdt
- Q2: Meet demands for information and offer necessary transactions to citizens and NGOs in a non-discriminative way #fo_gdt
- Q3: Put real users' needs at the center of your service, define KPIs, measure performance, and iterate your service accordingly #fo_gdt
I have received feedbacks, that people would like to express their views, however not publicly. Feel free to contact me directly using the private channel of your choice - probably e-mail. I will not disclose any source nor publish privately made quotes without prior authorisation by the source.
Still, I would like to find out, if there is demand to publicly discuss about the questions at hand. If not at all or not substantially, I would like to hear your feedbacks about possible reasons? Again feel free to share these with me either in the open or privately.
