Reflecting on open data policy
@prasannalaldas
A few suggestions (reinforcing work already underway)
Don’t ignore the perils of data Think of open data as part of a larger data ecosystem
Data types and sources Skills Policy Instruments
Think beyond small Think beyond government Facilitate the development of new financial instruments Don’t forget non-financial instruments
