Accelerating the secure circulation of data to address the challenges of our century<\/strong>
\nPublic digital infrastructures for data sharing are a fundamental pillar for access to healthcare, the management of natural hazards and health crises, for accelerating economic transitions, and more broadly for the successful implementation of all public policies that require close collaboration between public, private, and\/or non-profit actors.
\nAlthough the management of the Covid crisis highlighted the proportionally much stronger role of data sharing compared to AI \u2014 and even though inspection reports frequently point out failures in data sharing as a brake on public policies \u2014 these infrastructures still suffer from a lack of political support and insufficient resources.<\/p>\n

Thinking of digital infrastructures in terms of urban planning<\/strong>
\nJust as in a city where houses are not built by public authorities but must comply with zoning codes and connect to sewage, water, and electricity networks, digital technology too must benefit from public infrastructures that organize a smooth and ethical exchange of data (avoiding a sort of slum where each one manages their own waste and lays their own power lines).<\/p>\n

Providing concrete solutions to complex problems<\/strong>
\nThe report highlights seven concrete examples of infrastructures, from which a practical, collective, and ambitious field guide has been drawn for their proper deployment. These include platforms such as Mon espace sant\u00e9<\/em>, the French citizens\u2019 health record system that collects health data to empower each individual in managing their own health; Agdatahub<\/em>, which facilitates data exchange in the agricultural sector to promote sustainable practices; or EONA-X<\/em>, which pursues the same ambition for the mobility and tourism sector.
\nThese initiatives bring major direct and indirect benefits to the effectiveness of public authorities, to the environmental and economic efficiency of companies, and to the strengthening of French and European digital sovereignty.<\/p>\n

Aiming for transversal political governance<\/strong>
\nAs with any systemic issue, data-sharing infrastructures raise complex governance questions. The report underlines the central role of public agents, as well as private and non-profit actors, in the success of this digital transformation. It also stresses the need for a shared interministerial vision, steered by the Prime Minister and supported by a DINUM\/DGE duo at the national, European, and international levels \u2014 and for a collective, humanistic, and determined implementation.[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner row_inner_height_percent=”0″ back_color=”color-lxmt” overlay_alpha=”50″ gutter_size=”3″ shift_y=”0″ z_index=”0″][vc_column_inner column_width_percent=”100″ gutter_size=”3″ override_padding=”yes” column_padding=”3″ overlay_alpha=”50″ shift_x=”0″ shift_y=”0″ shift_y_down=”0″ z_index=”0″ medium_width=”0″ mobile_width=”0″ width=”1\/1″][vc_column_text el_class=”textone” uncode_shortcode_id=”353919″]<\/p>\n

Laura L\u00e9tourneau<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Engineer in Chief (Mines), she co-led the Ministerial Delegation for Digital Health for more than three years. The goal was to use digital technology to empower citizens, streamline coordination among healthcare professionals, and foster therapeutic and organizational innovations, all within an ethical framework that guaranteed medical confidentiality.<\/p>\n

In 2022, she was appointed by the Prime Minister to build on this experience in support of the ecological transition at the General Secretariat for Ecological Planning (SGPE).<\/p>\n

In 2017, together with Cl\u00e9ment Bertholet, she co-authored the book Ub\u00e9risons l\u2019\u00c9tat ! <\/em>Avant que d\u2019autres ne s\u2019en chargent<\/em> (\u201cLet\u2019s Uberize the State! Before Others Do It\u201d), which advocated for the transformation of public services according to the collaborative \u201cplatform state\u201d model.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text el_class=”textone” uncode_shortcode_id=”677393″]<\/p>\n
