[open-development] How Can USAID Development Partners Implement IATI?

Fri May 31 12:29:33 UTC 2013

hi Wayan, all,

I've added the event to the "guide" of open development events:
http://lanyrd.com/guides/open-development/

(Previously known as the "open aid data guide", I've broadened the scope
a bit.)

If you already have a Twitter or LinkedIn account, it's easy to join and
start adding events, to build a "community calendar" that can also
easily be embedded on your site.

Inputs, questions, ideas, feedback are all welcome :-)

Nicole Neumeister of BOND and Sam Worthington of InterAction will give us the overview of IATI's impact on the development sector in the UK, USA, and globally. Then Hannah Poole of Pact will share Pact's journey to be the first USAID implementing partner to publish to the IATI standard and Stephen Davenport of Development Gateway will give us an update on USAID's programs with IATI.
