Guidebook for designing and implementing open school data policies

By

“Open School Data: What planners need to know” published by IIEP-UNESCO addresses five key questions: What are the most critical data to publish? What format is most likely to encourage communities to make use of them? How can we foster the active engagement of citizens? What actions are required to close the accountability loop? What are the major risks attached to the opening up of information? It builds on the findings of six case studies on open data projects conducted across the Asia Pacific region, and two regional state-of-the-art reports on open school data (one in Africa and the other on Latin America) that are all accessible online on the ETICO website.
