Joint Mozfest session/OGP Write up

A copy of the post it notes created during the repeat of the Mozfest session at the Open Government Partnership Civil Society Day

What problems are we trying to solve

• People not having access to information
• Better data journalism

Who is our audience?

• People all over the world
• Newspapers
• Schools
• We don't know
• All ages
• Sadly- those with digital literacy mostly

What organisations do we work with?

• Galleries, Libraries, Archives and Museums
• Different scales, community groups, regional groups, international groups

What problems do we have?

• We all tell people similar things in different ways (can be confusing)
• Organisations with unique content currently don't share it
• Duplicating work
• We don't know what each other are doing
• Multi-lingual
• Local culture is not incorporated
• Branding over vision
• We expect technology before human
• We don't know what people want or need
• The funding models encourage competition instead of real cooperation

Ideas

• Take stock what infrastructures we all use
• Share campaigns
• Speaking with a joint voice
• Making concrete links
• Advocacy groups
• Respond to consultations
