Sociedad de la Información, Brecha Digital, TIC y Desarrollo
Soy Ismael Peña-López.
Soy Director General de Participación Ciudadana y Procesos Electorales en la Generalitat de Catalunya.
Anteriormente, y durante cerca de 13 años, fui profesor de los Estudios de Derecho y de Ciencia Política de la Universitat Oberta de Catalunya.
He sido también investigador senior en Open Evidence y director fellow de Innovación Abierta de la Fundació Jaume Bofill.

The crisis of the Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is having an unequal impact on people, thus worsening the also unequal impact of globalization and the transition into the Information Society.
It is not only that wealthier and healthier people have more resources to face the crisis, but also that the way society is being reshaped (new relationships of production, experience and power) is also making more evident where we are facing as a society and what is becoming more obsolete. And the coronavirus crisis is especially hitting hard those tasks and institutions becoming obsolete.

Citizen labs —as it happens with open innovation, social innovation, etc.— are very interesting tools for opening up what is now the monopoly of public decision-making. They contribute to enable a citizen participation ecosystem with open, distributed, autonomous public infrastructures, so that an ecosystem of public governance is possible.
Citizen labs (fab labs, living labs, innovation labs, etc.) have already been around for a while. On the one hand, they seem to be a more than a hype and some have a long track of interesting experiences. On the other hand, they do not seem to clearly take off, be part of mainstream citizen activism and, most especially, have a fluid relationship with the Administration.
The main three challenges of citizen labs nowadays are the following:

A la hora de plantear la sostenibilidad, la escalabilidad y el impacto transformador de la participación ciudadana, deviene estratégico el fomento y articulación de un ecosistema de participación global que comparta los mismos valores, visión y objetivos. Este modelo de participación, además de ser compartido tiene que ser eficaz y eficiente, per lo cual se considera necesario que comparta, también, unas infraestructuras globales en el ámbito de la participación. Estas infraestructuras son, entre otros, una Administración coordinada a todos los niveles que optimice los recursos disponibles, un sector empresarial que comparta el modelo de participación y colabore en su mejora, ...
