Crowdsourcing
Crowdsourcing is the process of sourcing ideas, services, nances and
information from the public via the Internet in order to benet from the
collective abilities of a large group of people. It has developed because
top-down approaches, whereby the government provides the solutions
to problems, have proved insufcient. Crowdsourcing empowers people

New technologies for the management of global
ows of data and people
A number of new technologies have been developed to manage ows of
global data and people. These include cybersecurity and e-passports.
Cybersecurity
Cybersecurity, or computer security, is the protection of information
systems, hardware and software from theft or damage, as well as the
protection of information on computers and related technology. The
need for cybersecurity is increasing as more and more people and
organizations rely on computers and the Internet.
There are many threats to computer security. One of the most common
is “phishing” – the attempt to obtain personal or sensitive information
such as user names, passwords, bank account details and credit card
details. Most computers have some level of protection, but threats are
becoming more sophisticated and protection systems need to keep ahead
of the threats. Common targets are large organizations, government
departments, military computer systems and airline carriers. The most
common prevention systems are rewalls, which stop access to internal
network systems and lter out different kinds of attack.

3 LOC AL AND GLOBAL RE SILIENCE
Concepts in contex t
There are emerging possibilities for managing global risks.
International civil society organizations have raised awareness
about, and found some solutions for, environmental and social risks
associated with global interactions. Strategies to build resilience
include the reshoring of economic activity by TNCs, the use of
crowdsourcing technologies to build resilience by government and
civil society, and new technologies for the management of global
ows of data and people, including cyber security and e-passports.
Synthesis and evaluation
● Many international civil society organizations aim to deal
with environmental and social risks associated with global
interactions. Some of these organizations are very large but
some are quite small. They have to deal with many stakeholders,
as well as those negatively affected by the impacts of global
interactions. All organizations require funds in order to function,
and many civil societies are criticized for the way they fundraise.
● Global interactions are also seen as having negative effects on
HICs, in particular in terms of manufacturing industry and
employment. Consequently, HICs are reshoring some industries
to increase employment, reduce travel time and improve the
quality of goods.
● New methods and new technologies are developing.
Crowdsourcing is an umbrella term for many fundraising and
information-sharing activities. High-speed global interactions
have made this possible. However, the increase in global
interactions has led to an increase in cybercrime, and there has
been an increase in the need for cyber security. The development
of e-passports has made people movement more secure,
although not completely.
● Geographers need to be aware of new, evolving technologies and
systems, and to see how they could benet communities – and,
equally, how they can be abused.
