Re: [datameet] [Bangalore DataCamp] Themes - Recommendations for Speakers
Hi, One of the themes that may be relevant is - quality of government data and ways of public disclosure of data? While the government may be becoming more open to sharing data and also reach a stage where it may take ideas from experts who work on this data, the quality of the data and the way this data is presented need to be improved greatly for any efforts to make a significant contribution to development. Arghyam is currently looking at sanitation data published on the government's website and taking Gramener's help to analyse the data. We could talk about our experience in using the data, its relevance, quality etc. Regards Amrtha Kasturi Rangan Manager -Grants Arghyam #599, 12th Main, HAL 2nd Stage, Indiranagar, Bangalore, Karnataka, India, Pin-560008 Website: Arghyam http://www.arghyam.org/,Indiawaterportalhttp://www.indiawaterportal.org/ On 11 January 2013 11:52, Nisha Thompson nisha.thomp...@gmail.com wrote: I want to thank the people who have registered and offered to volunteer.

Hi Nisha Tactical Tech will be happy to do a 'data for activism' session. I haven't gotten around to registering yet but will do so on the weekend. We are also trying to figure out with OKFN how we could set up a School of Data workshop.
