2. Open Data Policy
Key Objectives:
1.Promote Data publication, preservation and reuse.
2.Promote multi-disciplined research capabilities and activities that are
ICT enabled
3.Accelerate ICT innovation through equipping innovators with requisite
skills and credible and quality data
4.Change culture of keeping data private to public by default
3. The long end of the tail…..has individual scientists data
• Much of this revolution is taking place at the top end
– at the head and neck
• Although ‘big data’ is all the rage….the vast majority
of data sets created through research fall into the
“Long Tail”

4. Review
• To guarantee availability of open data over long-term and impact oriented, it must be
rooted in a clear policies, Strategies and consistent global data management
approach.
• Good policies should take into account context, content, and impact of open data .
• Open data impact is not yet fully felt (Granickas 2013).
• While UK ,USA, Canada, France, Denmark, Australia, Spain are advanced in
developing open data policies (Huijboom and Van den Broek 2011); mid-ranking
countries continue to embraced open data initiative of open data portals and
neglecting open data policies, strategies, regulations and legal frameworks.
(Kaplan 2015).

5. Review …2
• According to WBG 2015, Funding and technical capacity are not the only
challenges to be overcome but also lack of clear legal and policy guidelines.
• ODB 2015 observes that in Africa, most countries have not demonstrated
clear political leadership with defined policies and strategies on open data.
• Mokua, E., & Chiliswa Z. 2013 claims there is a risk of most open data
initiatives presently resting on superficial foundations, and therefore at risk
of stalling or falling backwards if top strong political leadership or
community pressure subsides on open data ecosystem.
• Open data is still in its very early stages in developing countries
(Schwegmann, 2012).

12. JORD Policy
JKUAT in consultation with CODATA, developed and implemented an
open research data policy (JORD) Policy (February 2016)
JORD expected benefits include
1. ROI
2. Encouragement of diverse studies and opinion
3. Promotion of new areas of work not envisioned by the initial investigators.
4. Strengthen the credibility of scholarly publications
5. Development of new products and services
6. Support JKUAT open data platform (https://opendata.jkuat.ac.ke
