Open development barcamp sold out

"Open development camp: data and collaboration" has now sold out.

This is an event held on 10th July in Washington DC organised by aidinfo, Development Gateway Foundation, World Bank, Forum One and Global Development Commons aiming to bring together a group of people to discuss transparency and accessibility of development information. As it turns out a lot of people want to discuss this topic - over 100 that have signed up in fact!

This is a barcamp-style event, where the agenda is driven by what the participants want to present and discuss. It promises to be an exciting event, and one we are hoping repeat In Europe later in the year.

Watch out for a review of the DC barcamp and details of future barcamps here are aidinfo.org

for info, the blurb read like this.....
"There are a number of emerging activities focusing on improving the transparency of aid and allowing organizations, projects, researchers, practitioners, and clients in developing countries to have improved access to aid information, data on outcomes, knowledge, and tools.  We are getting closer to the day when anyone can easily determine who is doing what, where they are doing it, what they have learned, and who is funding them. Come join a group of interested organizations to brainstorm about how to advance the conversation about making aid more transparent, improving access to data, and making knowledge and tools related to development easier to find on the internet."
