Welcome every body, I am and I work for the GODAN Secretariat
We are very grateful to the conference organizers that we can pitch GODAN here.
You are probalby all very tired after a long day but we would like your attention for the GODAN initiative.
The GODAN initiative advocates to improve food security, decrease malnutrition and support sustainable agriculture with open data.
We focus on building partnerships for advocacy on a high level
Currently we have 138 partners; we are still growing, you can see the partners on this map.
If we focus in on Africa these are our African partners – we want you to join and have the list grow!
With others we are working on the Global Partnership for Sustainable ---- that was launched in Addis Ababa last month
As a GODAN Secretariat we work together with our partners through working groups, social media and events.
We have two major events coming up, Open Government Partnership Global Summit in Mexico City (27-29 October) is the first; the second event is a workshop on how to make impact with open data hosted by the Dutch Government in The Hague (10-11 November).
This is in the future but now let’s focus on the next couple of hours.
To be able to get as much support for the advocacy efforts as needed we need you to join the GODAN initiative if you haven’t done so. Advocating for open data in agriculture and nutrition is much easier if we have broad support can can build fruitful collaborations.
