Greetings colleagues

I’m writing to let you know about the Open Data Charter
<http://www.opendatacharter.org>’s current review of their six Principles
and to invite you to take part in an online survey.

The Open Data Charter is a collaboration between governments and experts
working to open up data. It was founded in 2015 around six principles for
how governments should be publishing information. The aspiration was that
data should be open by default, timely and interoperable.

It’s been three years since the Charter’s Principles were launched and to
ensure that they continue to reflect the highest standards in open data,
the Charter is currently running a survey (open until 10 June 2018) to get
your feedback on how well the current Principles have worked and your views
on the future of the open data field. You can access the survey in one of
three languages via these links:


En: https://tinyurl.com/y7khdke8
Fr: https://tinyurl.com/yasaqggp
Es: https://tinyurl.com/ycojhuja


The links also contain more information about the process and overall
timeline of the review.

Please do take the survey and help us add Africa's voice to this process.
Also please spread the word by forwarding this email on to anyone you think
may be interested in these processes and (re)tweeting out links to the
survey using the #ODCrefresh tag. If you have any questions, please don’t
hesitate to contact me directly.


Thanks in advance!



Kind regards,
