L’osservazione analitica dei commenti dei cittadini rivolti ai messaggi pubblicati sulla pagina Facebook della Protezione Civile del Comune di Genova, nel corso delle alluvioni del 9 ottobre e del 15 novembre 2014, rivelano un uso ancora improprio di strumenti che, invece, potrebbero rappresentare una svolta nel processo di self-preparedness e self-protection da parte della popolazione minacciata da un evento potenzialmente disastroso. Emergono, infatti, alcune rilevanti criticità nel processo di comunicazione digitale: la tendenziale unidirezionalità della comunicazione e l’uso di un linguaggio troppo tecnicistico da parte delle istituzioni e l’aggressiva sfducia e la fsiologica tendenza a cadere nell’allarmismo da parte dei cittadini, riducendo signifcativamente il potenziale di resilienza che può essere offerto da questi strumenti di comunicazione. L’ipotesi progettuale proposta attinge ai principi del design della comunicazione e dell’interazione al fne di realizzare un artefatto social che mette in relazione il cittadino con il suo territorio, la sua comunità e le istituzioni, rendendolo partecipe e consapevole del rischio cui è esposto. 13 INTRODUZIONE Viviamo un’epoca in cui la mobile technology e i social network hanno creato un effciente ecosistema che permette lo scambio di informazioni in ogni momento e, virtualmente, in ogni luogo. Permeano a tal punto il nostro quotidiano che, persino in condizioni di estremo pericolo, ricorriamo a essi per cercare e condividere informazioni su ciò che sta accadendo attorno a noi. Là dove i giornali, la radio e la televisione relegavano il cittadino al ruolo di mero fruitore passivo della comunicazione d’emergenza, i nuovi media ne fanno un consumatore attivo, un prosumer. 1 Nel 1957, il Commettee on Disaster Studies, organo del National Research Council, pubblica uno studio condotto da Fritz e Mathewson, dedicato allo studio dei fenomeni di convergenza emersi in contesti di emergenza. 2 Lo studio contraddice e smentisce il popolare credo secondo cui, in occasione di crisi e disastri su larga scala, le persone si lascino prendere dal panico e si allontanino dal centro degli eventi. Al contrario, ciò che va creandosi è una ftta rete che lega, organizza e fa convergere persone, mezzi e informazioni. In tempi più recenti, Giroux e Roth (2012), dello Swiss Federal Institute of Technologies, osservano questo medesimo fenomeno emergere nello spazio digitale creato dai nuovi media di informazione. 3 All’interno di questo contesto, Genova e la sua Struttura di Protezione Civile sono stati scelti quali soggetti di analisi e sperimentazione. Sono stati analizzati i fussi comunicativi istituzionali e comunitari, 1 _ Jenkins H., Culture partecipative e competenze digitali. Media education per il XXI secolo (2009), p.29 2 _ Fritz C.

Particolare attenzione è stata dedicata all’osservazione dello svolgersi delle comunicazioni sulla pagina Facebook uffciale della Protezione Civile durante gli ultimi eventi alluvionali del 2014. Dall’indagine sono emerse le principali criticità: l’unidirezionalità della comunicazione e un linguaggio pregno di tecnicismi da parte delle istituzioni, l’aggressiva sfducia e la fsiologica tendenza a cadere nell’allarmismo da parte degli utenti. La sperimentazione progettuale attinge ai principi del design della comunicazione e dell’interazione al fne di costruire un artefatto social dedicato al territorio e alla sua comunità, capace di promuovere la cultura di Protezione Civile e sensibilizzare sul tema dell’auto- protezione, spingendo il cittadino alla partecipazione e istruendolo nella ricerca di dati oggettivi per la valutazione del pericolo. Sfruttando le potenzialità dei dispositivi mobile legate alla geolocalizzazione e alla context awareness, permette al cittadino di conoscere in tempo reale il proprio stato di pericolo e quello della sua cerchia di familiari e amici. Sfruttando il naturale fenomeno di convergenza, il sistema si affda al crowdsourcing per fornire costanti aggiornamenti su ciò che sta accadendo a livello locale, dall’allagamento di un sottopassaggio alla segnalazione di frane e smottamenti, promuovendo così un fenomeno di resilienza sociale. 16 . 1 First Things First: comunicazione e impegno sociale . 1 Design for Democracy . 2 Citizens as Customers . 2 Design for Emergency: ergonomia e sicurezza . 1 Itsumo, Moshimo . 2 Heat Rescue Disaster Recovery .

    Testimony of Shona L. Brown, Senior Vice President, Google.org Before the Senate Homeland Security Ad Hoc Subcommittee on Disaster Recovery and Intergovernmental Affairs Hearing on “Understanding the Power of Social Media as a Communication Tool in the Aftermath of Disasters” May 5, 2011 Chairman Pryor, Ranking Member Brown, and Members of the Committee. Thank you for your focus on the important issue of crisis response and the central role that technology now plays in disaster relief and recovery. During the past year, tens of millions of people around the world have suffered through natural disasters such as earthquakes in Haiti, Japan, Chile, China, and New Zealand; floods in Pakistan and Australia; and forest fires in Israel. Our own citizens have faced crises, with tornadoes and floods causing terrible damage in recent weeks reminding us of the toll natural disasters have on human life. Our thoughts are with the communities that have just been hit by devastating tornadoes in Alabama and across the US. As the Senior Vice President of Google.org, the philanthropic arm of Google, which includes the team that responds to natural disasters around the world, I have seen the increasing importance of Internet-based technologies in crisis response. Our team has used search and geographic-based tools to respond to over 20 crises in over 10 languages since Hurricane Katrina, and we have already responded to more crises in 2011 than we did all of last year. In the aftermath of the devastating tornadoes in Alabama last week, we supported the Red Cross by providing maps that locate nearby shelters, updated satellite imagery for first responders, and directed local users searching for “tornado” or “twister” to the maps through an enhanced search result.

  • Next-Gen Technology Transformation in Financial Services
    April 2020 Next-gen Technology transformation in Financial Services Introduction Financial Services technology is currently in the midst of a profound transformation, as CIOs and their teams prepare to embrace the next major phase of digital transformation. The challenge they face is significant: in a competitive environment of rising cost pressures, where rapid action and response is imperative, financial institutions must modernize their technology function to support expanded digitization of both the front and back ends of their businesses. Furthermore, the current COVID-19 situation is putting immense pressure on technology capabilities (e.g., remote working, new cyber-security threats) and requires CIOs to anticipate and prepare for the “next normal” (e.g., accelerated shift to digital channels). Most major financial institutions are well aware of the imperative for action and have embarked on the necessary transformation. However, it is early days—based on our experience, most are only at the beginning of their journey. And in addition to the pressures mentioned above, many are facing challenges in terms of funding, complexity, and talent availability. This collection of articles—gathered from our recent publishing on the theme of financial services technology—is intended to serve as a roadmap for executives tasked with ramping up technology innovation, increasing tech productivity, and modernizing their platforms. The articles are organized into three major themes: 1. Reimagine the role of technology to be a business and innovation partner 2. Reinvent technology delivery to drive a step change in productivity and speed 3. Future-proof the foundation by building flexible and secure platforms The pace of change in financial services technology—as with technology more broadly—leaves very little time for leaders to respond.

  • CIO Guide to Application Modernization
    CIO Guide to Application Modernization May 2020 2 What You Need To Know The global pandemic has put unexpected pressures on businesses of all sorts — in ways no one was projecting at the beginning of the year. As a result, CIOs face a series of urgent challenges: • How can they raise system visibility and system control over operations that are more dispersed and changing than ever? • How can they cut costs, yet create a more agile and responsive IT system? • How can they do more with older data, even as they understand better the data from a market that is changing every week? • How can they help people work faster, with a minimum of change management, or set the stage for growth, while preserving capital? In many cases the answer is a step-by-step deployment of cloud computing technology, tailored to meet the most pressing needs first. Working with a comprehensive cloud provider, it is possible to create cloud systems that respect and preserve core assets, while enabling rapid modernization, in particular for the cost-aware agility and resilience of modern application architecture. Why You Should Keep Reading This guide offers a series of approaches to application modernization, from identifying needs and developing an action-oriented roadmap, to methods of identifying and effecting meaningful change in the most critical parts of your IT operations. We have also included at the end a list of key solutions that Google Cloud and our technology partners have to give your organization fast results. 3 Introduction Even before the current crisis, IT organizations saw pressure to be more agile and innovative.

  • Abstract Utilization of Crowdsourcing And
    ABSTRACT UTILIZATION OF CROWDSOURCING AND VOLUNTEERED GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION IN INTERNATIONAL DISASTER MANAGEMENT by Julaiti Nilupaer Large-scale disasters result in enormous impacts on vulnerable communities worldwide, and data acquisition has become a major concern in this time-critical situation: the limitations of geospatial technologies impede the real-time data collection, also the absent or poor data collection in some regions. With the current advances of Web 2.0, crowdsourcing and Volunteered Geographic Information (VGI) have become commonly used. As a potential solution to fill the gap of real-time geographic data, crowdsourcing and VGI enable timely information exchange through a voluntary approach and enhance amateur citizen participation. Importantly, such geographic information can substantially facilitate emergency coordination by fulfilling the needs of impacted communities and appropriately allocating relief supplies and funds. My research interest centers on the utilization of crowdsourcing and VGI for disaster management. Particularly, I work to explore their potential value and contributions by reviewing two notable and destructive disaster events as case studies: the 2011 Tohoku Earthquake and Tsunami, and the 2013 Typhoon Haiyan. In addition, I examine the challenges of this information and seek potential solutions. This research aims to contribute a comprehensive qualitative analysis of how Volunteer and Technical Communities (V&TCs) have used crowdsourced data and VGI to enhance the coordination of disaster management.
