CiGob PUBLICATIONS After many years being sold out in the publishing market in Latin America, there are available a series of books by Carlos Matus that the Science Development and Methods of Government Foundation (CiGob) began publishing in Argentina and throughout Latin America, in conjunction with the Altadir Foundation and the National University of La Matanza.
The Leader without General Staff In this book, Carlos Matus starkly presents to us the arrival of a leader to his government office, combining a fine description of his daily life with a lucid analysis that articulates a systemic and comprehensive vision from what he calls “Science and Methods of Government”. Given the crisis of political parties and State’s crisis, Matus proposes, “to revolutionize the style of politics and style of government” as a solution to the crisis of parties and politics, for which introduces and develops the technopolitical analysis , which is a methodology of interpretation that combines science with ideology.
The Three Belts of Government In “The Three Belts of Government”, Professor Carlos Matus presents a theoretical proposal to carry out public modernization. The centerpiece of the proposal is aimed at increasing the capacity of government. The proposal is based on critical analysis of repeated failures in the reform processes implemented in Latin America and among other things highlights the need for the process to constitute a revolution of the public apparatus, so it will be a systemic process acting on the organization culture and not confined to formal change and policy type.
Govern Plan: the PES method. Interview with Carlos Matus In this book, Professor Carlos Matus examines the contrast between traditional planning and Situational Strategic Planning (PES) method that he has created, synthesized in four key questions: How to explain the reality? How to design the plan? How to enable the necessary plan? How to act every day in a planned manner?

CiGob INICIATIVES Since we intend to generate CiGob areas of discussion, reflection and multi-acting knowledge production with the objective of contributing to the conversation about opportunities and challenges that a everytime more complex and interconnected world presents. In recent decades there have been processes of change driven by technological innovation and globalization in a context of extreme complexity. The changes that occur rapidly affect others at unthinkable speed, new actors show up on scene and power is no longer in a few hands. The future becomes increasingly more complex and unpredictable. That’s why we conduct several conversation meetings that allow to call people that are interested in thinking about the future of the country.
WORKING BREAKFASTS
We created a dynamic of events that calls for the Argentina forward thinking. We seek to recover the value of conversation and the encounter as a creator of opportunities and knowledge. That is why in 2010 we made the 1st edition of the Working Breakfasts, of the Cycle: Challenges and Prospects to govern between complexity. Some of the issues that concern us and that were exposed by well-known guests from different areas were: the direction of MDTs (Multi-Disciplinary Teams), equipment for Top competence, communication and new technologies, education and the challenges for the XXI Century and to think about the State been faced with new scenarios, among others. The cycle was a success, more than 150 people participated in it, achieving to build a systematic conversation field that invited to think and construct knowledge about the skills needed to govern in the present context. Therefore we organize the 2nd edition of the series of meetings with recognized exhibitors in the different themes. To learn more about the meetings: cigob.org. ar/ciclo_2011.html

POLITICS INTERNATIONAL FORUM
In recent years, many players reflect about new technologies and their impact on society. There are many meetings about this topic destined to know about successful experiences on the use of new technologies in different areas and for different purposes. However, we consider important to provide a contribution to this debate from the perspective of the challenges and opportunities that the “information age” is to the policy and governance. It is an integrative proposal promoted by the Foundation only trying to overcome technological visions (centered on the discussion of tools) and communication (focusing exclusively on the presence of political actors in social networks). We believe that the concept of “Government 2.0” should go far beyond the mere presence on Facebook or Twitter: it is about exploring unreleased, creative features to realize a true “power shift” from an opening of Government community, with the risk and opportunity involved. The PoliTics forum’s objective is to create a multi-actor field of dialogue that enhances and enriches the discussion and debate about the challenges and opportunities of incorporating new technologies into the relationships between people and governments. In March of 2011 the first edition of Politics Forum that took place in the Centro Cultural Borges in Buenos Aires City. On this occasion we had the participation of Chile’s former President, Dr. Ricardo Lagos and the Ambassador of Spain

in Argentina, Amb. Rafael Estrella, as well as speakers on the topic, as Dr. Andrew Schuschny, Prof. Alejandro Piscitelli, Grad. Cesar Calderon and Grad. Hernán Nadal, among others. We also counted on the participation in panels of members of national and local government, and Directors of national political parties that are implementing Web 2.0 strategies for linking with the public. This event was the trigger of Web Platform PoliTics Forum (www.foropolitics.org) that aims to link the multiplicity of actors that from different perspectives and industries are interested in impacting on the ability of government from innovation in collaborative tools.

“FOR THE LIBERTAD NEIGHBORHOOD” PROJECT CiGob Foundation works methodologically on the social collaborative project called “For the Libertad Neighborhood” (PBL in Spanish: “Por el Barrio Libertad”). The Foundation assists in the design of the intervention project from the application of methodologies of work based on the Altadir Popular Planning Method (MAPP) developed by Prof. Carlos Matus, seeking to clarify and understand the problem to be faced, and then identify viable and sustainable strategies for action to confront them. This is a simple working but creative method, designed to handle problems at a community level, allowing people to engage with the reality they live in, processing problems and designing solutions. It proposes that those who participate in the process to identify and select the issues they consider most relevant, would define a hierarchy of ways of facing them with tools at their disposal. The Libertad Neighborhood, in which the project carries out, is located in the district of Hurlingham, in the northwest of Buenos Aires. It gives home to about sixty families in overcrowded conditions and health risk. Most households are poor, lack access to main public services and, in many cases, residents have their basic needs unsatisfied. The PBL project was born from the concern of a group of people for over 30 years working with neighborhood residents and those who are united by a need to positively impact in a sustainable manner, impro-

ving their inside living conditions. The project targets on facing the lack of accessibility for children between 5 and 12 years in appropriate areas where they can engage in recreational activities, receive psychology containment, and to strengthen their learning abilities. As a result of the intervention, at this date we achieved to reconstruct the community room of the neighborhood in which are carried out, through the efforts of multiple actors, academic support activities, recreational and cultural activities, and where snacks are served for kids every afternoon.
