Measuring the Unmeasurable: Digital Participation Seminar 18/06/2010

Birmingham City University are hosting a one day digital participation seminar on 19th July.

It intends to provide a forum for discussion of the meaning and measurability of Digital Participation, focusing on the three main measurables promoted by the Digital Participation Consortium – Reach, Breadth, Depth.

It will include contributions from Ofcom, following publication of their initial statistics bulletin on digital participation. In addition it will hear about the role of the UK Research Council funded Digital Economy Hub at Newcastle University and from the Arts Council and Audiences Central on the experience they have in measuring participation in the arts.

Digital Engagement Policy Presentations 19/04/2010

Last week I gave a talk on the Government’s response to the consultation paper on Policy options for geographic information from Ordnance Survey. This was the first of a series of three presentations being held on consecutive Monday evenings at Moseley Exchange.

Tonight, Michael Grimes, aka Citizensheep, from the Citizenship Foundation will be talking about the Hansard Society‘s Report on Digital Citizens and Democratic Engagement. The evening kicks off at the tolerably early time of 6.30pm and you can either sign up to attend on Eventbrite (just £3 for non-members), or just turn up. Bear in mind that if too many people turn up we might not buy enough biscuits, so be warned. More – Digital Engagement Policy Presentations
