How does Govpinion work?
All citizens need to visit public institutions one day or another for a public service. At the end of the visit, two possibilities are open to him: either the service is satisfactory or there is room for improvement at this establishment. In both cases, the citizen has the opportunity to have his voice heard through Govpinion which provides him with a catalog of more than 3,000 institutions and more than 1,000 public officials. He may leave comments and evaluate the public institution he visited or one of the public individuals he interacted with , he has the opportunity share details about experiences and suggest improvements that would be likely to improve the satisfaction of citizens who might obtain the same service in the future.
In addition to providing users with the ability to share their experiences online , Govpinion provides details about the geolocation of each public institution on a map as well as its contact information.
These are some of the features of the new site:
• A modern website with a simple and intuitive interface for free navigation without advertising and without clutter.
• A richer interface and a comprehensive catalog with 3000 public institutions at the service of citizens and new ones being added ina week including: courts,consulates, municipalities, urban agencies, hospitals ...
• A geolocation of public institutions and a database including the coordinates of these institutions on a map.
• An addition of more than 1,000 public officials including the most important politicians of the kingdom which includes all the ministers, walis, governors, ambassadors.
• A procedure for sharing opinions and evaluating institutions and government officials facilitated on the site with the use of a Facebook account which provides users withthe ability tomaintain anonymity and keep their identity private if they wish.
• An easier participation and a more social site with the addition of sharingand comments modules from Facebook included on all pages.
• An improved site performance with a gain of 20-50% in terms of speed of loading pages.
These are some of the features currently being worked on which willbe available in the coming months:
• An Arabic version is under construction to allow users to navigate through the different sections of the site with the language of their choice.
• An addition of the latest news in the press about the institutions and public officials on their respective pages on Govpinion.com
• New articles on the blog that explain the formalities and administrative procedures to help guide citizens and help satisfy their various requests.
• Many interviews and reports illustrating the views of citizens on different institutions and officials of their country.
• The addition of new institutions such as all public schools across the whole country including 1,500 of which are already listed on the site.
Govpinion wants to encourage transparency and accountability at all levels of the public administration and the
government as well as promoting democracy and fight corruption. Govpinion continues to grow its presence in Morocco and aims to establish a complete catalogue of all public institutions and public officials in the service of Moroccan citizens throughought the different regions of Morocco and abroad.
The site aims to promote a culture of democracy and freedom of expression but also aims to empower public institutions and public officials and push for transparency to provide better services to citizens.
The long-term Govpinion vision is to reproduce this model beyond Morocco through the rest of North Africa and the Middle East in the first phase and throughout the rest of world after that.
When the beta version of Govpinion was launched in Morocco, there had been many articles published about it (Goud, Attajdid, Alkhabar, Hakaikpress, AndalusPress, Paparazzi.ma, eMarrakech info…) and it says online that had received a lot of feedback from users which was quite exciting.
Govpinion says in a post that anyone can browse the site but that in order to provide a review about a public official or an institution one must use a Facebook account. This helps alleviate the issue with people creating fake accounts and posting fake reviews.
Note that even though you are required to use your Facebook account, Govpinion understands that you might not be comfortable using your real name when sharing a review on a public site. This is the reason why Govpinion allows you to choose a nickname during the registration process on the site. Govpinion hopes that this added privacy measure will make you comfortable sharing your truthful experience and feedback with a full sense of security and privacy.
