Dear all,

The Delhi datameet group has had a couple of meetups in May and June to 
take forward the project "open data catalogue for development" - which 
essentially will be a catalogue of datasets collected and released with an 
open license by development sector organizations in India. "Datasets" here 
mainly refers to the primary data collected by organizations during 
baseline/midline/endline/other studies conducted as part of programs and 
projects. From education, health, agriculture, water, sanitation, land etc. 
this catalogue aims to put together a comprehensive list of datasets 
available in the open domain, and the organizations actively involved in 
different development work.

Here are the notes from our last meeting:

The next meetup is scheduled for Saturday 29th June at the Base Station in 
Shahpur Jat. Please RSVP here:

In the meetup: we want to finalize the metadata structure of the catalogue, 
release a temporary submissions form to start gathering datasets, and work 
towards a larger event in Delhi to promote open data practices among 
development sector organizations.

Best,
Guneet
