    Feminist open government research dissemination and results
    (2022-08-31) Merchant, Allison; Open Government Partnership (OGP) Secretariat
    Opening up government remains an underexplored method for accelerating gender equality and closing critical gaps in information, access, and participation. The deliberate inclusion of women, girls, and those across the gender and sexual identity spectrum brings critical knowledge and skills that increase the potential of ambitious open government reforms. The COVID-19 pandemic has only accentuated the need for these insights as the epidemic continues to reveal a host of longstanding inequities in social services, government programs, access to digital resources, along with specific data collection and transparency needs. More inclusive open government policy and recovery efforts have the opportunity to help governments rebuild better institutions and address ongoing systemic barriers to equality through open policies and practices.

    Harnessing open data to achieve development results in Latin America and the Caribbean
    (2016-08) Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC)
    Through research and innovation in open data, this project worked to strengthen the accountability and legitimacy of public institutions, improve public services, and fuel economic growth in Latin America and the Caribbean. It supported two initiatives: the Latin American Open Data Institute (Instituto Latinoamericano de Datos Abiertos - ILDA) and the Caribbean Open Institute. These acted as innovation hubs to explore opportunities and challenges of using open data. The report provides a summary of activities, outputs and outcomes of the project. A toolkit was developed for the assessment of open data programs in the region.

    Harnessing open data to achieve development results in Latin America and the Caribbean
    (2017-02-01) McNaughton, Maurice
    These strategic initiatives are geared towards developing the open data ecosystems, testing and validating core “theories of change.” Based on information gathered prior to this phase, four strategic interventions are under way in key sectors related to the following issues: governance structures; capacity/community building; standards development; and, inclusion/cognitive divide. This collection of sector studies provides insights in determining the attributes, value-opportunities, enablers and constraints of an emergent open data ecosystem in Caribbean sectors of Community Tourism, Agriculture, and Protected Areas. Capacity building was demonstrated in the Community Tourism initiative; whereas the Protected Areas project highlighted lack of readiness.

    Measuring the availability of data for development through the global data barometer
    (2022-01) Fumega, Silvana; Grossman, Nicolas; Chawana, Fiona; Zamora, David
    This project developed the Global Data Barometer (GDB) which tracks the use and reuse of data, focusing on governance, capabilities, availability and use and impacts of data that enable better governance, economic growth, and social inclusion. With a network of 109 countries, 6 thematic partners and 12 regional and country hubs, the survey covers more than 500 data points. It takes a broad look at the extent to which national and sectoral data ecosystems around the world are promoting data for the public good. During 2020 the team worked to refine overall study objectives, leading to a draft Theory of Change.

    Opening government data through mediation : exploring the roles, practices and strategies of data intermediary organisations in India
    (2014) Chattapadhyay, Sumandro
    This study examines existing practices of access and use of government data in India in order to understand challenges inherent to the National Data Sharing and Accessibility Policy (NDSAP). Positioned between two agents in the information supply chain, the “data intermediary organisation” focuses on improving access to, and use of information for its intended audience, structuring findings into a form understandable for users. Often the challenge of official government data is its analysis. It may be crucial to share analytical findings from government data as well as the collated and sanitised data itself.
