“From Washington, DC, to cities, states and countries all around the world, open government is shaping a new definition of what it means to serve the citizens of a country – and how to be an engaged citizen. Open government is revolutionizing the way citizens interact with government leaders. It connects like-minded citizens with each other, with government agencies and with many other types of organizations.

Open data from the government gives citizens the information they need to hold government leaders accountable. On the flip side, soliciting expertise from people outside of government helps leaders form policies based on the latest, most comprehensive information possible. Open data fosters collaboration between government leaders and citizens, and encourages cooperation internally among government entities. The results can be tremendously better decisions that have the potential to change our lives drastically”
