The International Digital Policy Observatory

该项目旨在建立一个国际数字政策观察站，这是世界上第一个跟踪国际数字/互联网监管发展的综合数据库。该基金将提供一种独特的手段，促进在研究不同监管方法有效性方面的合作，并使这些研究人员能够通过实时获取和分享50个国家的数字和互联网政策举措，向ICT行业、政策制定者和倡导团体提供见解。通过跟踪全球数字经济中的政策举措，这将为澳大利亚在数字经济中处于监管最佳实践的前沿提供重大好处。

This project aims to develop an International Digital Policy Observatory, which is the world’s first comprehensive database to track developments in digital/Internet regulation internationally. The facility will provide a unique means of fostering collaboration on research into the effectiveness of different approaches to regulation, and allow these researchers to provide insights to the ICT industry, policy-makers, and advocacy groups, through the real-time capturing and sharing of digital and internet policy initiatives across 50 countries. This will provide significant benefits in placing Australian at the forefront of regulatory best practice in the digital economy, by tracking policy initiatives in the global digital economy.
