The document discusses open data principles and best practices for making government data widely available to support policy goals and sustainable development. It recommends that governments 1) invest in national data infrastructure including open data policies, funding, technology and human resources, 2) adopt open data principles like those from Bermuda and Open Government Data to make data accessible, interoperable, machine readable and more, and 3) set up open data compliant data repositories following principles for accessibility, security, and permanence. The presentation provides examples of open data principles and requirements for certifying open data repositories.

- 1. LYNN WOOLFREY CODATA-ASSAF WORKSHOP ON OPEN DATA FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES, HOTEL CARLTON, ANTANANARIVO, MADAGASCAR, 5 - 6 SEPTEMBER 2017
- 2. “Information becomes more valuable the more it is used. We in the policy-making world need to understand better how the economics of information differs from the economics of inherently scarce physical goods— and use it to advance our policy goals”
- 3. The New Data Agenda The 2013 UN post-MDG report notes that government data in developing countries is not easy to find or use. The report calls for a revolution in data publishing, in which national data is made widely available to support policy research. How can governments revolutionise the use of national data to achieve their policy goals?
