FUTURE POLICY MODELLING (FUPOL)

Workpackage 7 Large Scale Demonstrators


The general objective of the work package is the demonstration of the potential of the FUPOL services in specific policy contexts and the assessment of results in order to generate feedback on the lessons learned and to improve the components. A specific objective of the work package is to

demonstrate that the FUPOL services can be exploited on a European scale by implementing

them in several countries with varying conditions and focus areas.

OBJECTIVES


5 demonstrators Different Domains covered:• Urban planning and land use (Yorkshire, Prato)• Urban segregation and migration (Zagreb)• Sustainable development (Pegeia, Yantai)

Criteria for Demonstrators• Potential of Re-usability by other cities in Europe• European (Worldwide ?) dimension of polices• "Quick Win“ in delivering value for citizens

GIS/census dat centered……with simulation Engagement of Politicians, Citizens and Enterprises

Description of the work/1


Demonstrator scenarios roughly identified (see DOW)• To be refined • Data input and expected results to be tuned

Three work phases for each Demonstrator• Planning and initiation phase• Execution of the first/final prototype• Evaluation first/final prototype• Political impact• Technical solution• Social impact

Description of the work/2


Prato will coordinate the WP Prato, Yantai, Barnsley, Pegeia and Zagreb PIN, ZIH, INTERFUSION, Cellent will support single sites• Stakeholders involvement• Census Data provisioning• policy modeling• evaluation

OVERVIEW OF DEMONSTRATORS (1/5)

Demonstrator 1: Prato (Italy)Organization: Public Authority City of PratoLanguage: ItalianPolicy Domain: Urban planning and land use

Specific problem addressedLandscape development of urban open spaces as implementation of the principles of the European Landscape Convention.


Demonstrator 2: South Yorkshire (UK)Organization: Public Authority BarnsleyLanguage: EnglishPolicy Domain: Urban planning and land use

Specific problem addressedLand use management in view of structural economic changes forced upon citizens and companies.



Demonstrator 3: Zagreb (Croatia)Organization: Public Authority City of ZagrebLanguage: CroatianPolicy Domain: Urban segregation and migration

Specific problem addressedManagement of migration issues in order to improve integration policies.



Demonstrator 4: Pegeia (Cyprus)Organization: Public Authority Municipality of PegeiaLanguage: EnglishPolicy Domain: Sustainable development and quality of life

Specific problem addressedMatching development and business interests with principles of sustainability, biodiversity protection and preservation of natural and cultural landscape.



Demonstrator 5: Yantai (China)Organization: Public Authority Municipality of YantaiLanguage: Mandarin and EnglishPolicy Domain: Sustainable development

Specific problem addressedPolicy challenges related to a newly built industrial park and the sea portal covering topics related to environmental policies versus economic development policies.



Task 7.1 – Planning of the demonstrators

Development of general guidelines on planning, execution and evaluation of the demonstrators, including Key Success Indicators.

Elaboration of specific planning documents for each demonstrator. Definition of a project team in the political entity managing the pilot. Initial involvement of stakeholders (citizens, policy makers and

local authorities). Identification of pilot requirements in terms of methodologies and

technologies. Identification of operational context and available data sources. Identification of the validation scenario in terms of functionalities to

be assessed and commitment required to the users. Identification of market and success factors, quality factors and

assessment criteria. Structure of the validation report.


Task 7.2 – Execution of the demonstrators

Integration of the FUPOL platform with existing services of the government authority (website, back-end systems).

User training and support. Documentation of all activities undertaken by the pilot. Further analysis of adequate legislation. Modifying and updating the information stored in the

knowledge base according to their perception. Recording problems and making suggestions. Stakeholders will communicate with the local government

through the participation tools available on the FUPOL platform. Simulation and policy modelling process. Creating different scenarios according to all collected

information. Verification of the opportunity of introducing the results

obtained from the analysed scenarios into practice.


Task 7.3 – Evaluation of the demonstrators

Providing measurable and quantifiable results will be essential in reaching our objective, i. e. convincing public authorities and private stakeholders on the effectiveness of the FUPOL solution, thus fostering new opportunities of cooperation. The evaluation will measure the predefined pilot

metrics and key success indicators against the results. It will consider tangible as well as

intangible criteria measuring expected benefits and costs resulting from the implementation of the project demonstrators. All stakeholders will be involved in the evaluation process, including citizens and government officials.


Task 7.3 – Evaluation of political impacts

This refers to the impact on the policy design, namely:Extent to which new topics and views have been brought up by stakeholders.To what extent the targeted stakeholders have actually participated. Relevance of the contributions of citizens to the policy topic.Impact of the contribution of stakeholders on the policy design process.


Task 7.3 – Evaluation of technical solutions

It will assess the following issues: The usability of the FUPOL framework The technical stability of the solution The users satisfaction with the technical solution

The methods that will be used are the following:1. user and stakeholder questionnaires2. usability test sessions3. technical logs (analysis including Web 2.0 / 3.0

traffic, performance, availability)4. analysis of the users’ feedback5. analysis of user profiles


Task 7.3 – Evaluation of social impact

It will assess indicators such as:Number and categories of stakeholders according to gender, age, Internet skills, professional status, field of activity, etcPerceived utilityPerceived impact by stakeholders


DELIVERABLES /2
