Live Chat Series: Marko Rakar, Hille Hinsberg, Simon Delakorda15. April 2010 – 09:22 by John Heaven (TuTech Innovation GmbH) |
As part of “eParticipation in Central and Eastern Europe”, the second PEP-NET Online Discourse, we will be hosting a series of live chats with leading eParticipation actors in the region.
Marko Rakar, who started the successful Croatian political blogging site pollitika.com and won the 2009 eDemocracy Award, will kick off the series this Friday (16th April), 10.30-11.00 CET. Marko was recently in the headlines when he was accused of publishing a list of war veterans’ names, which he categorically denies.
On Monday 19th April at 16.00 CET we will host a live chat with Hille Hinsberg. Hille is a Communication Officer at the Estonian Cabinet Office; is responsible for osale.ee, the Estonian e-consultation portal; is actively involved in establishing communication channels between citizens and government institutions and promoting good practice in engaging citizens; and advises government agencies on eParticipation. She has cross-sector experience, having worked as spokesperson for the Non-Estonians’ Integration Foundation and managed EU-funded projects.
Simon Delakorda, Managing Director of PEP-NET member Institute for Electronic Participation (INePA) in Ljubljana, Slovenia, is a full-time eDemocracy/eParticipation practitioner and researcher. He will answer questions in a live chat on Wednesday 21st April from 10.30-11-30 CET.
