Open data driven policy analysis and impact evaluation

Amongst the most contemporary and challenging problems of the policy making process is the generalized requirement of keeping governments and policy makers in general, accountable, via assessing the actual impact of the implemented policies. The need for transparency tends to empower solutions that are end-user oriented and do not simply rely on predefined metrics and Key Performance Indicators. Policy Compass aims to exploit the collective intelligence of citizens and policy makers alike via a user friendly tool that will let the users utilize open data and existing metrics towards analysing and assessing the perceived impact of specific policies of interest.
