Join the Canadian Open Data Summit!
THIS WEEK THE CANADIAN OPEN DATA SUMMIT [https://opendatasummit.ca/]
TAKES PLACE ONLINE FROM 15 TO 16 SEPTEMBER! 

This two-day event is co-organised by the City of Montreal
[https://montreal.ca/en] and the Secretariat of the Quebec Treasury
Board [https://www.tresor.gouv.qc.ca/] and already celebrates its 6th
birthday. The 2021 edition of the summit focuses on two major
themes: 

 	* RESPONSIBLE DATA GOVERNANCE
The first step in the lifecycle of data is publishing open data. What
are the processes, dynamics, and frameworks that make this possible?
Which actors are involved in the process? And, what are the
difficulties of managing, and governing open data? Join the sessions
to dive into these questions and discover how data can be used for the
common good and bring about the digital transformation of
government! 
 
 	* ENGAGEMENT AND DIGITAL LITERACY  
To make data truly useful and valuable for citizens, merely making
public sector information available is not enough. Therefore, the open
data community advocates for including more players and creating new
channels. Digital literacy and active engagement are vital here. Join
the sessions to learn more about user needs, the discoverability of
data, and how to engage with citizens to create an inclusive and
data-driven society.

The Canadian Open Data Summit is a unique opportunity for you to get
to know the Canadian open data community, engage in the discussion
around open data, discover the benefits of reusing data, and build a
community model for an open and inclusive society.
