“Use Open Standards, Open Data, Open Source, and Open Innovation” – what does that mean for your organization? Sarah Farooqi and Heath Arensen of the Digital Impact Alliance’s Open Source Center, introduce the principle of openness this mini-season, as it relates to digital development, how it impacts ways of working, and what it means for shared global goals. They chat with Angela Odour-Lungati (Ushahidi) and Hong-Phuc Dang (Open Source Initiative) to explore what “being open” might mean for each type of organization or project, its impact in other fields, and look at a use case in Kenya.
