Achieving SDGs through open data - Nigeria Today

The training of data collectors was done under the project, “Promoting Transparency and Accountability in Local Government, Through Open Data Collection in Three Area Councils of FCT, Nigeria”. The project, which is being implemented by WEP in collaboration with the National Bureau Statistics, with support from Open Knowledge Foundation, under the African Open Data Collaboration Fund, aims at determining the status of basic amenities, creating awareness on fiscal activities of area councils and eliciting interest of the citizenry to participate effectively in the development of their communities.
