Water Hackathon

Who? The community of software and water experts

What? Water Hackathon is a new problem solving system which draws together the talent and initiative of software developers to solve real world water problems

Where? Water Hackathon will culminate in a two-day marathon problem solving event with multiple global locations, including Nairobi, Cairo, Washington DC and …

When? Event in October 2011but we are already actively collecting problems!

Why? The surge in mobile phones is transforming the way people receive and share information.

In recent years mobile phones have been used to send weather information to farmers, turn off irrigation pumps remotely and tell people the location and condition of the nearest toilet.

Yet surprisingly little effort has been made by the water sector to package what knows about its own problems in a way that the ICT community can engage it with and apply their unique set of skills.

Water Hackathon aims to bridge this gab.

Urban Peer to Peer Dialogues

TELEPRESENCE

ENABLING INNOVATIVE OPPORTUNITIES FOR

GLOBAL PEER-TO-PEER DIALOG

ENABLING TECHNOLOGY

INNOVATION

The first peer-to-peer dialog connected 30+ participants from 10 centers around the world

To discuss and uncover global best practices on the use of ICT in urban service delivery.

The world bank’s urbanization knowledge platform partnered with Cisco to launch a series of peer-to-peer dialogs facilitated by Cisco's ground-breaking Telepresence

technology.

PROJECT OVERVIEWCISCO TELEPRESENCE

simulates face-to-face communication—attendees thousands of miles apart seamlessly appear as if they are in the

same room.

LOOKING AHEAD

What if we had a Telepresence center in the city halls of the world’s 20 largest cities, giving mayors instant, face-to-face connectivity to their global peers?

ENABLING EVIDENCE-BASED POLICIES WITH GLOBAL STANDARDS FOR CITY-LEVEL DATA

ENABLING TECHNOLOGY

INNOVATION

To date, 130+ cities from 40+ counties Have joined the program.

The World helped develop a standard suite of city indicators that, for the first time, enable mayors and

citizens to monitor the performance of their city over time and against their peers. This is an important first step

towards addressing the lack of consistent, comparable city-level data.

PROJECT OVERVIEWA. The Global City Indicators provide

40+ standardized metrics on 22 topics that simplify complex subjects to

numbers that can be easily understood by policymakers and the public.

B. The CityIndictators.gov portal provides an online platform for cities to upload their data and for policymakers

and the public to monitor their city’s performance over time and in

comparison to its peers.

LOOKING AHEAD

What if we use the Global City Indicators to build a wider ecosystem around app developers, citizen engagement, and comparative research?

e-Justice

e-Justice: Justice Delayed is Justice Denied (Kenya)

The project The impact

Digitizing high court proceedings to avoid files

being mysteriously “lost” or misplaced and therefore

delaying justice

The digitization of High Court records has already enabled the High Court to continue a high profile corruption case in Kenya because files that had gone missing had already been scanned and electronically safeguarded. This

innovation is proving to be a key measure in the fight against corruption within judiciary.
