GOVSI podkast
Vlada Slovenije z GOVSI podkastom širi ustaljene načine obveščanja in komuniciranja z javnostjo ter krepi transparentnost vladnega delovanja. Vladni podkast je namenjen poglobljeni predstavitvi vladnih vsebin ter drugih aktualnih in družbeno pomembnih tematik. Poleg bolj neposrednega stika z javnostjo daje tudi prostor za dodatno in temeljito pojasnjevanje vladnih odločitev, načrtov, politik ali pogledov.
Podkast v celoti nastaja v produkciji in v prostorih Urada vlade za komuniciranje (Ukom). Imel bo več voditeljev, predvidoma bosta objavljeni po dve novi epizodi na mesec.
V podkastu predstavljamo aktualne vladne teme ter posebne projektne vsebine, kot je 20. obletnica članstva v EU. Predstavljamo tudi nacionalno znamko I Feel Slovenija.

S Sursom do boljših odločitev in smeha
V novi epizodi vladnega podkasta GOVSI, ki ga je vodila Petra Bezjak Cirman , smo se poglobili v svet statistike z gostom Apolonijo Oblak Flander , generalnim direktorjem Statističnega urada Republike Slovenije (SURS), in Martinom Bajželjem , vodjo sektorja za objavo podatkov in komuniciranje. Govorili so o pomenu statistike za vsakdanje odločitve, vodenje družbe in razvoj gospodarstva.
Statistika je pogosto napačno razumljena kot suhoparno obdelovanje števila. A kot sta poudarjena gosta, predstavlja osrednje orodje za razumevanje družbenih in gospodarskih tokov. »Država brez statistike ne more delovati,« je izpostavila Oblak Flander. Podatki, ki jih SURS zagotavlja, zagotavlja podjetjem, prebivalcem in državam sprejema predmišljene odločitve. Od oblikovanja turistične strategije do spremljanja demografskih sprememb – statistika je vtkana v vse ravni družbenega delovanja.
V oddaji so spregovorili tudi o prisotnosti Sursa na družbenih omrežjih. Da bi okrepili zanimanje javnosti za podatke, se je na svojih profilih razvil edinstven pristop, ki združuje strokovnost v humorju. Bajželj je razkril, da je tako prvič posegel po bolj sproščeni komunikaciji leta 2013 med evropskim prvenstvom v košarki. Odličen odziv jih je spodbudil, da podatke danes pogosto predstavljajo na zabaven in kreativen način. »Naš cilj je podatke narediti dostopne in zanimive tudi tistim, ki se sicer ne uporabljajo,« je še poudaril.
Vabljeni k poslušanju in ogledu podkasta.

Making Better Decisions and Finding Humor - with statistics
In the new episode of the government GOVSI podcast, hosted by Petra Bezjak Cirman, we delved into the world of statistics with guests Apolonija Oblak Flander, Director-General of the Statistical Office of the Republic of Slovenia (SURS), and Martin Bajželj, Head of the Data Publishing and Communication Sector. They discussed the importance of statistics for everyday decision-making, societal governance, and economic development.
Statistics are often mistakenly perceived as dry number crunching. However, as the guests emphasized, it is a key tool for understanding social and economic trends. »A state cannot function without statistics,« highlighted Oblak Flander. The data provided by SURS enable businesses, residents, and the government to make informed decisions. From shaping tourism strategies to monitoring demographic changes—statistics are embedded in all levels of societal functioning.
The episode also touched on the SURS's presence on social media. To enhance public interest in data, they have developed a unique approach on their profiles, combining professionalism with humor. Bajželj revealed that they first adopted a more relaxed communication style in 2013 during the European Basketball Championship. The excellent response encouraged them to often present data in a fun and creative way today. »Our goal is to make data accessible and interesting even to those who don’t typically use it,« he added.
