[open-development] Why Vertical Integration Matters for Social Accountability - Jonathan Fox seminar livestream 12:30 - 13:30 GMT today

Fri Oct 31 11:37:14 UTC 2014

Hi all,

I thought some of you interested in transparency and accountability might be interested in a seminar we're livestreaming (details below) from IDS today at 12:30-13:30 GMT. Jonathan will be talking about a range of issues relating to what works in social accountability which are really useful for those engaged in open data initiatives looking to drive accountability.

Why Vertical Integration Matters for Social Accountability
12:30 to 14:00  in the IDS Convening Space.
Speaker: Jonathan Fox (School of International Service at American University, Washington DC).
This event is being live-streamed at: http://www.ids.ac.uk/events/why-vertical-integration-matters-for-social-accountability

Jonathan is well-known for his academic work on accountability, his scholar-practitioner work on accountability issues in Mexico, and his early role in collective efforts to get the World Bank to start taking its own accountability seriously.
