OPEN DATA FOR DEMOCRACY
Access Info works to promote the publication of government data as open data for the maximum benefit of all in society.
Open data is data that is published in an open format under an open licence, so that it can be freely used, reused, and shared, by anyone for any purpose.
Access Info focuses on data that enables public participation in an evidence-based debate about social, economic, and environmental challenges. We advocate for opening data needed for accountability of government action, and to prevent and combat corruption. This includes data on:
- Spending, including public procurement
- Company registration and ownership
- Climate Change
- Digitalisation
- Gender equality
- Migration
- Health
- Progress on the Sustainable Development Goals
