El futuro de los sistemas de información en un régimen de gobierno abierto y ley de transparencia

Abstract

The biggest challenges that Latin American countries face to become information societies are the lack of a reading public, the inefficiency of the educational system, the precarious state of the content industry and the deficient information infrastructure. Consequently, it is estimated that only about the twenty percent of the population can be considered included in the information society. To meet this challenge, information systems should implement productive inclusion strategies, that is, information inclusion strategies oriented to empower users for the labor market and employment and income generation. In the new information society, knowledge organization is not enough: the challenge is to transfer information and knowledge to the people that need them.
