Barcelona Declaration

🌍 #OpenDataDay is a global moment to reflect on the societal impact of open data, and how different parts of the open data ecosystem connect.

In that spirit, @okfn@fosstodon.org and Open Nederland highlight the importance of linking different open data communities: governmental, cultural, scientific, and geographical.

In a new piece, our Executive Director @MsPhelps@akademienl.social reflects on the 𝐫𝐨𝐥𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐧 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐜𝐡 𝐢𝐧𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 within this broader open landscape.
