What does it take to realise the
potential of open data in developing
countries?

The ODDC project
• A collaboration of Canada’s International Development Research
Centre and the Web Foundation;
• Developed out of a meeting alongside the 2012 OGP Plenary in
Brasilia;
• A research network of 17 projects based in developing countries,
exploring the emerging impacts of open data on budget, urban
governance, poverty reduction, justice, higher education and
resource industries;
• Building common methods and a shared evidence base for
understanding, and furthering, the promise and practice of open
data;

Research objectives
1. To explore how open data improve governance, support
citizens’ rights, and promote more inclusive development in
developing countries;
2. To support knowledge sharing, policy learning and
evaluation based on, and feeding into, the developing
research findings;
3. To develop and test common methods for assessing the
context, and the strengths and weaknesses, of open data
initiatives over time;
4. To identify how global standards, platforms and
infrastructures for open data impact upon the use of open
data in developing countries;
