Data Honeymoon in the non-profit sector
A world where knowledge creates power
for the many, not the few.
A world where data frees us — to make
informed choices about how we live,
what we buy and who gets our vote.
A world where information and insights
are accessible — and apparent — to
everyone.
“
Data Honeymoon in the non-profit sector
We also call for a data revolution for
sustainable development, with a new
international initiative to improve the quality of
statistics and information available to citizens.
We should actively take advantage of new
technology, crowdsourcing, and improved
connectivity to empower people with
information on the progress towards the
targets.
