This Week in Open Government | March 8, 2013

  • Open North participated in a Huffington Post Live segment about reinventing democracy in the age of digital technology. You can rewatch the segment to learn more about our approach to civic technology.

  • The City of Philadelphia released their Open Data Guidebook, which was developed by their Open Data Working group to help departments understand how and why to release data to the public. This guide is valuable for staff in any municipality interested in best practices for opening City Hall with open data.

  • We will be presenting MaMairie.ca at CrowdFund Night 2 on March 21st at Centre St. Pierre in Montreal. Join us to learn more about how we plan on bringing open source government monitoring tools to Montreal’s City Hall and to see other interested projects from the community!
