Celebrating without pomp or fanfare, we acknowledge the hard work of our peers. Running our Hack:Org:X meeting this week and talking about the work and prospects of the Open Data community is our small contribution to this important occasion.

Open Data Day (ODD) is an annual celebration of open data all over the world. Groups from likely every country create local events on the day where they will use open data in their communities. ODD is maintained and supported by the Open Knowledge Foundation (OKFN) through the Open Knowledge Network, whose chapter in Switzerland we support. As a way to increase the representation of different cultures, we offer the opportunity for organisations to host an Open Data Day event on the best date within a one-week period.
