Filling data gaps to support access to civil rights in the Mekong Region

The statistical invisibility of vulnerable populations in Myanmar and the Mekong region limits their access to COVID-19 related relief, and hence their access to civil rights during the pandemic. The paper examines inequalities that have been exacerbated by the pandemic, and how to address gaps in data that lead to invisibility and further marginalization. Efforts to support marginalized peoples to access their digital rights helps amplify their voices in their advocacy for increased realization of civil rights.Global Affairs Canada (GAC

International open data conference 2016 : summary report and the second action plan for international collaboration

Supported by an online archive of more than 80 sessions and 20 special events (Madrid, 2016), this report reflects on the discussions and debates that took place at the IODC, as well as information shared on a wide range of global initiatives. The International Open Data Conference (IODC) brings together the international open data community to discuss key trends and issues that are shaping the future of open data. Data needs to be reusable, but more importantly, actually used. The overarching focus is on strengthening the relevance of specific data released to address specific problems.World BankUnited Kingdom’s Department for International Development (DFID)Global Affairs Canada (GAC)

Data capacity building in the global south : emergent patterns and insights from 24 IDRC data for development (D4D) projects

Strengthening data capacity across civil society, governments, and the private sector in the global south has been an important target outcome of IDRC's Theory of Change for Open Data for Development (OD4D). This study reflects a full review and synthesis of 24 projects related to data capacity building that were undertaken for the purpose of identifying common themes (patterns), effectiveness criteria, and program design considerations. The goal is to determine keys for success, longer-term impact, and expanded knowledge sharing/re-use

Better measurement and monitoring of data for development

The performance indexes and assessment tools included in this analysis were selected by Open Data Watch after a review of possible candidates and consultations with other index or tool producers. To ensure their relevance and comparability to the GDB, only indexes and tools applicable to government data in multiple sectors were included. Assessment tools that are currently in use and performance indexes that have at least one edition available since 2019 were included in the research inventory. Seven performance indexes provide cross-country comparisons using a numeric score, while five assessment tools enable countries or organizations to conduct assessments of government data and statistical systems based on qualitative and quantitative measures. All indexes and tools included in the inventory seek to measure some element of data governance, availability, quality, openness, or use and impact

The Impacts of Politics and Ethnicity on Volunteering

This article examines how national and local ethno?politics impact on volunteering by taking a cross?country comparative perspective: Kenya and Mozambique. In both countries societal fragmentation along ethno?political lines is mirrored within the volunteer landscape and reduces the positive impacts of volunteering. The role of international volunteers (IVs) from the global North and, in the case of Kenya, national volunteers (NVs), to address these divisions is discussed. The effects of the support of the volunteering for development sector in such ethnically and politically fragmented contexts is also explored. The findings from the current research show that the perceived neutrality of the IV and NV means they may face less risk in attempting to step outside of existing political and ethnic confines than local volunteers or citizens functioning within these environments. Through this neutrality, IVs and NVs may be provided with a unique opportunity to use this position to assuage some of these societal fractions
