Ten years ago, "Open Data" was a niche buzzword for enthusiasts; today, it is the nervous system of New York City’s digital infrastructure.
This fireside chat between Open Data Week founders and government officials will examine how civic engagement, both inside and outside government, has fostered a culture of accountability in government operations and equipped civil society with the tools to demand equity.
Join us as we discuss:
- The Shift: From Compliance to Collaboration. Explore how agencies have evolved from simply publishing data to using public data as a collaborative tool for operational efficiency.
- The Advocacy Loop: Data as a Lever. We’ll discuss real-world case studies of dialogue in action and how collaborations pushed through transformative engagements to shape the future.
- Future-Proofing the Next Decade of Civic Tech. As we look at new technologies, how do we frame our existing collaborations as best practices for the future? How do we make sure that the future is better than where we started?
