Hi everyone! I’m Emily, a part of the Democracy team at mySociety, working on open political data for democracies around the world.

Hello all. I’m Matt, a geoscientist with a small scientific computing company based in Nova Scotia, Canada. I co-founded a geoscience community of practice, centred on an open Slack team, and I maintain some open source software projects. I’m interested in open content of all kinds, especially for reproducible science. Cheers!
Hi Matt! Welcome to the forum community! Have you looked into our Frictionless Data for Reproducible Research project at all? https://frictionlessdata.io/reproducible-research/ I’m the product owner and would be happy to discuss more if you are interested.
Bom dia, estou iniciando aqui à procura de apoio para um projeto que estou criando para o Parlamento Jovem, de fiscalização dos gastos públicos feito pelos secundaristas interessados, por tal imagino que o lugar deste projeto seja em um grêmio, mas gostaria de saber por vocês, como progredir, e onde posso achar mais apoio.

Hi everyone!
I already hung around OKFN’s website for some times, but never joined the discussion here. My name is Arie Purwanto. I am a PhD student at the Delft University of Technology and also working for the Indonesian Supreme Audit Court. I was a programmer as well as on-demand Information Systems auditor in the latter organization for nearly 10 years.
I found that open budget data is necessary for the work of my institution, especially for scrutinizing budget accounts planned by local governments, since feedback from the public is critical to check whether the budget indeed accommodates public’s needs.
Before doing my PhD, I was also involved in Kawal Pemilu, an independent citizen initiative from Indonesia to digitize the opened election results data. Currently, I am studying citizen engagement with Open Government Data (OGD). I have authored four conference papers (one is a forthcoming) about OGD engagement from different aspects. You can check my profile in ResearchGate.
I look forward to inspiring discussions and exchange in this forum.
Best regards,
Arie Purwanto
Hi, @ariepurwanto!
Welcome to the OK forum. TU Delft has done a lot of research on open data in recent years. I’m sure you also have interesting things to contribute and bring important findings from research to the discussions.
Also, you may have noticed, we do have a Policy and Research category in the forum, where you might want to discuss and share some results.
Hi @herrmann,
Thank you for your suggestion! I am starting to look around in the category. I hope I can share and discuss some findings of my research.
Best,

Hi All! I’m a researcher from Lund University in Sweden focusing on collaboration on open data and open source software from the perspectives of companies and the public sector.
Currently doing action research together with the Swedish Public Employment Service on their Open Government Data ecosystem JobTech Dev Their platform provides open gov data and open source software that can help actors create new and improved digital matchmaking and guidance services for the Swedish labor market.
We’ve just recently launched a network within the Swedish public sector sharing lessons learned and inspiration on how to collaborate and share both open data and open source software.
Looking forward to partaking in the discussions here!

Hello, I am so glad to join this forum and interact with all of you. My name is Niki. I am in Limassol, Cyprus. I have just received my Journalism degree this year and I my team named “Ziyafeti” received funding to create a documentary and produce content related to the inter-communal conflict from 1963 to 1974.
Now, we would like to expand our involvement and dive in in the political history and historical analysis of facts and events that divide the island in 1974. Also, we want to create a tree diagram explaining which people commit serious crimes and now are in the government, in key positions.
It is an Investigate Journalism issue. We are looking for a curator, supporters, and funding opportunity. The “Cyprus Papers” documentary made by Aljazeera is just the beginning of a corrupted government.
Thank you so much for reading my post all the way through.
Please do not hesitate to reply back!

Hi everyone,
Looking forward to contributing to the meaningful conversation on this forum. I represent OSDG, an open source initiative that aims to integrate various existing attempts to classify research according to UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). You can try out the free tool by simply inputting any research abstract or a DOI that’s available on Microsoft Academic.
If you are interested in UN SDGs, and would like to support the development of open-source machine learning products, I invite you to register for our newly-launched Community platform. The Platform is developed in partnership between UNDP SDG AI Lab, PPMI, and a growing community of researchers led by Dr. Nuria Bautista Puig. You can find out more at OSDG.ai/Community.
