Serbia’s open data portal: Putting public information to work
Serbia’s national open data portal, data.gov.rs
[https://data.gov.rs/sr/], serves as the central access point for open
datasets published by public institutions across the country. Managed
by the Office for Information Technology and eGovernment,
[https://www.ite.gov.rs/tekst/en/124/office-for-it-and-egovernment.php]
the portal brings together data from ministries, agencies, and local
authorities, making them freely available for anyone to explore,
download, and reuse. The goal is to increase transparency, improve
public services and create new value through data. 

At its core, the portal offers searchable datasets across several
themes, including finance, health, education, mobility, and more.
Users can filter data by topic, institution or format and access both
individual files and regularly updated data sources. Many datasets are
provided in machine-readable formats and, where relevant, through
APIs, making this data relevant for developers, researchers, and data
journalists. 

A key feature of the portal is its focus on reuse and community
engagement. Beyond publishing data, the platform highlights practical
examples of how datasets have been turned into applications,
visualisations, and analyses. Registered users can also follow
institutions, take part in discussions and suggest improvements,
helping to shape how public data is released and maintained. The
portal is closely linked to Serbia’s wider digital governance
strategy and aligns with European open data standards. 

Explore the Serbian open data portal and discover how open data can
support better decisions, stronger accountability, and innovative
solutions. Get creative and find opportunities to reuse public
information in new and meaningful ways.
