 I'm Samuel, nice to talk to everyone and I'm really glad to participate in that event and I really appreciate all the work that you do with Alavitalie and I'm glad to meet over similar platforms in Europe. I'll talk to you about my data, which is now two years old Alavitalie platform and I will start by telling you a bit about this platform. So we launched it in October 2019. We are Open Knowledge Foundation France and it's a project that we have in mind for several years and that we are glad to make it now real. We have now more than 1,000 requests and it's increasing a lot since we've launched all the pro features of Alavitalie and we have now an impact and we also have an awareness of the platform which is really good and our figures keep on increasing and so I will talk to you today about how we have managed to launch this platform, all the difficulties we have and to give you and to finish to give you some success stories that we've had over the two years running this website. So if I give you some context about Open Data on France, I will give you the metaphor of the Leaning Tower of Pisa. You probably all know the Leaning Tower of Pisa and maybe you've been there. It's a beautiful building, a beautiful monument that is known for its leaning, but we don't always know why it's leaning. So the reason it's leaning is that because it has unstable foundations and it's a bit of the same with Open Data in France if we consider Open Data as a nice monument and the foundation as freedom of information. So why is it a beautiful building Open Data in France? I mean things are not always perfect, but it's a situation which Open Data is mandatory by the law since October 2018. It's ongoing this effort about Open Data. Yesterday more than 500 commitments were announced by all government departments. I don't say there are always ambitious commitments. I wouldn't say that, but it's still an ongoing effort and the government is aware of the importance of Open Data and it's a political priority in the moment. The country, if we look at the rankings, it's a second country in the OECD ranking, it's a third country in the European Data Maturity Report. Again, it's not always perfect and I could talk during hours about all the issues that we face with Open Data, but I'm here more focused about the foundation of this tower which is freedom of information. So we have a law that is quite old. It started in 1978. It's called the CADAS as the Commission dexco document administrative. It's quite easy procedures. It has a large definition of administrative document which is what you can request and it's now a constitutional right so everyone can use FOIA quite easily in France, but we have several issues. First is that awareness of the law is still weak among citizens. It's not a law that is really known and a right that people know. I'm always amazed by how many people don't know about this law, but also it's not known by many civil servants which makes our work even more difficult. Requests, when you send your requests, they're often bypassed, they're not even considered. On my data, we have more than 50% of our requests that still await response and it's something, it's a difficulty that we face all the time with our requests. And the thing is that if we look in government administration, FOIA officers procedures are not in place in government administration which is also linked to the fact that they often don't answer and too often they wait for the mediator intervention from Lakada to make a statement and before releasing any document, especially on documents where we know it's possible by the law. So we have very unstable foundation on which we build Madadah and Madadah is part of an ongoing movement to increase the awareness of the importance of of this law and of freedom of information. So we started to make Madadah more than three years ago with a small team with the help of Laurent, Pierre, Pascal and Edda and several of us which I cannot mention and over an organization that helped us build Madadah, which has my society from Sparencia, Hello Clos, Uvreboit and over our organization. One thing we did is that we had to import a quite massive database on all the, it's called the public service directorates, like 50,000 contacts, which is a difficulty was the only database that we have that was comprehensive about the French local and national government and all the agencies. We also had to request Lakada, so the mediator, about their own email database or their contact in the administration, do you follow me? So they have contact in every administration, it's mandatory by the law, it's called Prada, it's not the people that are well-dressed, it's only a person responsible to accept a document administrative, which means all the person that are your contact when you have a FOIA request and we have to send a request which is the first refused and during more than six months and then they approve and they sent us this document that we didn't want to raise at first and we also spend lots of time explaining civil servants and citizens about our approach. So we have now a website that works pretty well and so I'd like to share you some quickly some success stories. There are plenty of articles mentioning Madada, so I will not look at that much more about civil society organization using Madada. So one example is what the Court Catholic, so it's an NGO with Equitas made with Madada to look at the sanctions for welfare benefits. They talked to department councils, to local council and asked how many sanctions did they release for welfare benefits and they found that more than 115,000 households each year are withdrawn from the welfare revenues each year and they had a difficulty is that only a third of all these departments answered with an acknowledgement of receipt and only 13 on 100 actually released the data. Another example is a virus, COVID virus concentration in sewage water. We had a request from COVID tracker which is a national website to track COVID and it took six months to obtain this data in spite of the urgency of getting access to data but now it's integrated and used a lot to track alternatively how COVID is spreading in the country. There is also the quadrature which is struggling against surveillance. There is using Madada to track many things such as how smart city projects use digital surveillance. So they look at public procurement for example here with Paris 2024 Olympics so all the innovative solutions for safety that are used for the Olympics. They also look at all the locations of surveillance cameras that are approved with prefectorial orders and so we've had success and they are actually using a lot of Madada and advocating for its use and we also have done our own investigation here on the transparency of public procurement and subsidies in France. It's mandatory in many ways to open this data and we found that if you look only at the green department it's only the one that released the data that we wanted and we found that among those 188 requests we have only received only 61 positive answer less than 42%. So to conclude on that Madada is used a lot. It has now a good awareness in the public so which is really good. It also is part of a campaign to improve the freedom of information law which as I have shown you is quite unstable and needs really in an emergency some improvement but we've also had some success and we can show now that civil society is using a lot foyer to use in their advocacy efforts. So thanks for listening and I'll be glad to exchange with you. Thank you so much Samuel that was really great and I think even though we're all here want RFOI systems to be better it's definitely important to celebrate the wins so thank you very much for that.
