Our final show for 2018 is an extra special one! We chat with Audrey Tang, Minister for Digital in the Taiwanese Government. An opensource entrepreneur and former political activist, Audrey is now leading Taiwan's efforts to become the most inclusive digital economy in the world.
Audrey shares her early experiences in the opensource community, founding several tech startups, and explains how the Sunflower Movement in Taiwan helped to bring about radical change in the country's democracy. We chat about the value of radical transparency and collaborative government in government, and hear incredible examples of this in practice.
We also discuss Audrey's responsibility for broadband access in ensuring a participatory and inclusive society, and how indigenous communities are enriching the nation's worldview. Finally, we get Audrey's top tips on dealing with internet trolls! A fitting end to a fantastic year with the OneTeamGov community.
