Peter Eigen: Overcoming the fear of transparency
We’ve participated in two interesting events in the last two weeks: the Open Aid Data Conference in Berlin, and the IATI in the Visigrad countries conference in Prague. A proper post is still due, but here’s already a video of the closing talk from Transparency International’s founder Peter Eigen, “Overcoming the fear of transparency”:

Rolf “Everything I need to know about open data, I learned from open source”
BoF BerlinBut what did we learn from open source? Two days of Open Knowledge Conference gave lots of food for thought. And lots of inspiration as well: plenty of projects doing interesting work, and experiences to share. And to add a cherry to the cake, we had a great “open lunch for development” with several people active in development aid. My (delayed) take-aways for Open for Change.
