Overview
The Open Metrics Dashboards project is focused on funding transparent, community-driven data tooling. By building publicly accessible dashboards, the initiative brings visibility to how data informs decisions, progress, and impact. Contributions support the ongoing development, hosting, and governance of open metrics that stakeholders can inspect and learn from. This work is about clarity, accountability, and shared learning across communities that rely on data-informed insights.
