European Open Data Week, by Homer

4 days for public actors, researchers, enterprises, non-profits, journalists, innovators and you!

25-28 June 2013, Marseille - France




Following the first successes obtained in open data, we must continue to overcome future great challenges: involving more and more people, opening data more efficiently and animating open data initiatives thanks to substantive programmes and not only one-shot events.

That is the aim of the European Open Data Week, within wich the International Conference “Harmonising open data policies” will take place, co-organized by Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur Region, the Institut de la Méditerranée and the FING in the frame of HOMER project, with EU support:




Wednesday 26 June: International Conference “Harmonising open data policies”

While open data portals multiply at different political levels (from local to Europe through region and State), which are the initiatives of convergence, pooling and harmonization of metadata? Which are the best practices for long term animation? Which ease of data reuse? How to find more data? Which is the added value of open data in terms of creation of economic and social value, citizens' involvement or modernisation of public action?

Thursday 27 June: Participative workshops Day

Open workshops – that you propose and animate – and workshops tracks, around topics of data standardisation, data culture, Open Data Handbook, open data and policies, and many others!
