Chile has registered 700 public programmes. The annual performance monitoring is carried out by two institutions: SES/Dipres, so it is not a simple task. In order to contribute to greater transparency in the use of public resources, SES/Dipres incorporated the principles of innovation: co-creation and testing of improvements to the process. The result was a substantial improvement in the quality of the monitoring reports, making them a relevant input for decision-making.

India has several small cities lacking resources which has prevented them from offering digital services. To reduce the digital divide amongst the towns and cities and to ensure availability of digital services across the urban landscape of the country, NUDM attempts to offer a free, ready-made, and open-source software platform to cities and/or collectives (states). This platform is a choice-based model that benefits cities of varied maturity levels and preserves their existing investments.
The City of Austin launched Data Impact Visuals & Exploration (DIVE) to address low data literacy, limited accessibility, and lack of decision support tools. This project aims to empower diverse users with data skills, tools, and resources to make informed decisions. DIVE benefits community members, City staff, universities and funders. Innovative features include user-centric design, multiple components, a community-based approach and a long-term sustainability plan.
The Open Data Portal guarantees that anyone, regardless of their technical knowledge, can move from doubts about Mexico City to answers based on data. Through an interactive data visualisation tool, it seeks to transfer the power to analyse the information generated by the government to the citizens. The portal is innovative because of its robust visualization tool. Also, it has been fully developed in open source; allowing users to find data, visualise it, cross reference it and build stories,…

The platform facilitates strategic decision-making through key evidence and integrating databases with technologies for aggregating, filtering and reorganising information. In this way, it innovates in public access to data, contributing to the development, diversification and promotion of the Mexican economy.
We have developed an innovative GDP forecasting application based on Explainable Machine Learning (XML). It allows users to generate accurate and explicable economic forecasts from data sets with multivariate time-series. The application displays novel prediction changes for temporally ordered variable values, which largely increases the ability to explain predictions. It also includes a hybrid machine learning (ML) model that seamlessly combines all algorithms which outperform Sweden's National…
The Information System for Monitoring the State Anti-Corruption Program (country's Integrity Program) was developed to effectively address the challenge of monitoring the Integrity Program. This innovative solution simplifies and streamlines the processes related to the Program's implementation, ultimately leading to more effective governance.

It was created with the purpose of improving the activities of state organizations, especially through the collection of ideas from citizens for the implementation of innovative solutions. Idea Bank thus allows state organizations to register on the site and announce contests in any…
Water networks are confronted with aging infrastructure, increased urban population, and climate change. The City of Greater Sudbury has collaborated with CANN Forecast to implement InteliPipes, an AI-based decision-support system that leverages various data sources to improve the overall reliability of its water network. With it the City can (a) understand better the network’s degradation over time, (b) tailor inspection plans and replacement programmes, and (c) optimise watermains…
