La Unión Europea elige a Tandil para un proyecto de gobierno abierto
Tandil has been selected, along with nine other Argentine cities, to participate in a project led by the Fundación País Abierto y Digital and the European Union. This agreement aims to strengthen local democracy by promoting transparency, accountability, and citizen participation in public decision-making. The selection is based on the progress demonstrated by these municipalities in implementing policies to consolidate an open and agile government. The agreement stipulates that the foundation will provide training in information technologies and support in participation strategies, while the municipality commits to sustaining open data programs and allocating the necessary resources. This collaboration enables the continuation of the digital transformation process recently initiated, ensuring the technical and financial support needed to improve interactions between the state and citizens. This initiative is significant for open data because it directly links government transparency with accessible digital tools. By integrating participation platforms and technical training, the project demonstrates how open data are not merely an informational repository, but an active mechanism for democratizing access to public information. This reinforces the idea that data openness is fundamental to building more responsible and participatory institutions, serving as a model for other jurisdictions seeking to modernize their public management through the ethical and strategic use of information.
