Overview
Open Data Initiatives is a global effort to sustain open data projects that empower researchers, journalists, policymakers, and communities. This initiative seeks to fund underfunded data portals, curation, and tooling that increase transparency and access. Through Open Data Initiatives, we aim to build a durable foundation for data commons that others can build on. We want to ensure data remains open, accurate, and accessible to diverse users. The work is practical, constructive, and oriented toward long term sustainability for data infrastructure people rely on daily.
Why Your Support Matters
For Open Data Initiatives, community funding is what keeps critical data portals alive between grants. Your support directly expands access to datasets that improve transparency and accountability. The funding helps underfunded teams hire data curators, maintain servers, and translate data portals into multiple languages to reach broader audiences. We aim to lower barriers for researchers, students, and journalists who rely on open data for evidence, storytelling, and investigations.
- Sustain open data portals that otherwise risk closure or scaling back
- Improve data quality through curation, validation, and documentation
- Expand multilingual access and accessible design
- Support community education and onboarding around data literacy
- Fund governance, audits, and transparency efforts
