«Which is not something you often hear people in Silicon Valley say.But so many kids at the top schools apply for Teach for America. I’d like to talk to those youngpeople and say: Consider government. It’s real service, and you can affect hundreds of millions of people. And if you’re working for U.S.A.I.D. and the State Department, you canaffect billions of people». Leia na integra. E veja sobre TECNOLOGIA no site da Casa Branca: neste endereço.

Comemoremos o 5 de OUTUBRO 2014 valorizando a participação e a transparência na coisa pública, na curcunstância nos orçamentos do Estado.
Assim, primeiro, para quem não sabe, «The International Budget Partnership collaborates with a large and diverse network of civil society organizations around the world to fight poverty and improve governance by reforming government budget systems and influencing budget policies. At the heart of this work are efforts to make government budgeting more transparent and participatory, more responsive to national priorities, better able to resist corruption, and more efficient and effective». +
Depois, The Open Budget Initiative - que tanto é seguida em unidades curriculares do Ramo Gestão e Administração Pública do ISCAL:
«The Open Budget Initiative (Initiative) is a global research and advocacy program to promote public access to budget information and the adoption of accountable budget systems.
IBP launched the Initiative with the Open Budget Survey—a comprehensive analysis and survey that evaluates whether governments give the public access to budget information and opportunities to participate in the budget process at the national level. The IBP works with civil society partners in 100 countries to collect the data for the Survey. The first Open Budget Survey was released in 2006 and will be conducted biennially.
To easily measure the overall commitment of the countries surveyed to transparency and to allow for comparisons among countries, IBP created the Open Budget Index (OBI) from the Survey. The OBI assigns a score to each country based on the information it makes available to the public throughout the budget process.
In September 2014, IBP launched the Open Budget Survey Tracker, an online monitoring tool allowing citizens, civil society, media, and others to monitor in real time whether central governments are releasing the requisite information on how the government is managing public finances.»
«The Open Budget Survey 2012 examines 100 countries from around the world, measuring three aspects of how governments are managing public finances:
Budget transparency – the amount, level of detail, and timeliness of budget information governments are making publically available. Each country is given a score between 0 and 100 that determines its ranking on the Open Budget Index.
Budget participation – the opportunities governments are providing to civil society and the general public to engage in decisions about how public resources are raised and spent.
Budget oversight – the capacity and authority of formal institutions (such as legislatures and supreme audit institutions) to understand and influence how public resources are being raised and spent».
