In order to stimulate the debate on aid transparency and open data OpenAidis organising an open aid data event in Prague on October 4th. The main theme for the event will be “development” meets “open data”. More specifically the event has four objectives:
to illustrate the role of aid transparency for aid effectiveness with theoretical input and practical examples
to present the International Aid Transparency Initiative (IATI) supported but not yet implemented by the German and the Swiss Government
to introduce participants to the concept of open data and its economic, social and administrative impact in other public sectors
to stimulate the debate among development practitioners, parliamentarians, government staff and researchers on how to promote aid transparency.
This workshop is part of a series of similar workshops that OpenAid organized in Berlin and Paris.
