[OKFN-EN] Global Opendata Index (2)

Wed Oct 22 15:52:10 UTC 2014

Hi Mor,
 is Andrea again. Can I suggest to add "Pension and Social security data"
to the list of data for the index? it seems to be a compelling debate
nowadays in Europe. It can form a basis for future policy evaluation I
think.

Best

Andrea

> We are in the middle of submissions collection to the 2014 Index. You can

> <http://blog.okfn.org/2014/10/09/this-index-is-yours/>. While the UK is

> Luckily, since we have the data for 2013, updating the index is an easy
> task! Simply go to the UK country page
> <http://global.census.okfn.org/place/gb>, check the submissions that were
> made in 2013.  Have there been any changes, are any additional datasets
> available?  If so, fill these in.
>
> If not, just write in the box ?Further Details and Comments (optional but
> strongly encouraged)? at the bottom of the page of each of the datasets ?no
> changes for 2014?.  This will ensure that your country is visible in the
> 2014 Index, and we will have a record of these changes.
>
>
> I think the Index can be a great exercise to those who are new to open gov
> data in the UK and also a great community tool towards the UK city census
> (details about this will be sent soon!).
>
>
> Everyone can contribute to the Index so please feel free to fill it in. If
> you have any question, please send me an email.
