suggest the following points

- develop specific sectors, I suggest education for parochial reasons, =
with clear deliverables and a road map for next 12 mths within the =
sector
- secure funding for capacity-building and establishment of a knowledge =
base within each sector
- ensure public intervention at a few select international occasions, =
involving NGOs and parliamentarians
- secure participation of =E2=80=9Cless exposed=E2=80=9D countries in =
the south, to avoid the word =E2=80=9Cdonor darlings=E2=80=9D in these =
technical debates which frequently drain capacity for small countries.

Hope this helps and look very much forward to next steps,

a.

Subject: Open Aid/Development Data - Call to strengthen our community

Dear all,
In the last couple of days I have been talking to some of you to take =
forward the discussion held on the open development data satellite event =
at the Open Government Data Camp in Warsaw and on the Open Aid Data =
Conference in Berlin.=20

There was a strong feeling in Warsaw that more coordination and =
cooperation for future activities on open aid/development data is =
desirable. There have also been discussions on joint activities, e.g. in =
collecting "shining examples", developing open data manuals, building an =
evidence base and reaching out to infomediaries and users of data. While =
some activities can be done immediately, others need fundraising.

I would like to share the points discussed more widely and invite your =
feedback.=20

Please check out this google doc:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1-8teBeN8-NjZaVHHEiKD53CezYOusE9eingG2=
B5AreI/edit

I probably forgot people on the list! Please feel free to forward!

Greetings, Claudia
