Research
The Global Digital Governance Lab focuses on the use of information and communication technologies in public governance and public services. We have broad research areas that include but are not limited to: smart city and collaborative governance, social media adoption and e-participation, and big data/open government. Some areas of interest include governance structure and process, performance evaluation, social media and effects in public sectors, citizen participation, big data analysis, and open data. Within each research concentration, the GDG fellows contribute to conduct the comparative and international studies, form partnerships with organizations and host workshops and conferences to disseminate our knowledge globally.
