<br>
Open Data Day is on the 21st of February this year at 9am. Following<br>
the hugely successful event last year, Code for South Africa is<br>
hosting a data easter egg hunt competition. It will be at held at the<br>
Codebridge Civic Tech Lab in Cape Town.<br>
<br>
We're going to be setting up 20 data exercises ranging from easy to<br>
difficult and asking participants to try to answer them. An example of<br>
an easy question might be, "How many flush toilets are there in<br>
Bela-Bela?".<br>
<br>
We'll also have a data visualisation component for those who like graphs.<br>
<br>
You don't need to be a programmer to participate. If you've ever seen<br>
a spreadsheet then you're welcome to come. We're looking for<br>
academics, journalists, activists, accountants, lawyers, plumbers,<br>
builders, kite builders and anyone else who has an interest in<br>
learning more about data.<br>
<br>
There will be prizes in various categories, more details to follow.<br>
<br>
You can find more details here: <a href="http://www.code4sa.org" target="_blank">http://www.code4sa.org</a>. I'll put up<br>
more details soon.<br>
<br>
For those who can't make it physically, we'll open the competition up<br>
online as well.<br>
<br>
Please RSVP ahead of time at the link below. We have space for around<br>
40 people at Codebridge. If you're going to participate online, please<br>
indicate that when you RSVP.<br>

Quoting from the site:<br>
<blockquote>
<p>On February 21, we are organizing an Ebola Open Data Jam in
several locations around the world. The goal of this one day
event is to collect publically available data sources of
information that describe the healthcare capabilities of Sierra
Leone. It is a sad fact of history that many multinational
organizations have more data about Sierra Leone and Liberia
healthcare than their own Ministries of Health. We are looking
for detailed descriptions about hospitals and clinics, doctors,
nurses, beds, equipment, ambulances, staff, roads, supply
chains, IT and communications capabilities. <br>
</p>
<p>We want to collect and curate this information and make it a
gift to the nations of Liberia and Sierra Leone to post it on
their Open Data Portal so that they are empowered to know more
about their own country and to share that knowledge with the
international community so that health governance and patient
outcomes can be improved. We know that greater information and
transparency is a pre-requisite to public confidence in health
services, which itself is a condition for economic recovery.</p>
<p> </p>
<p> Participants will be asked to choose from five workstreams:</p>
<p> </p>
<p> <br>
1. Collecting healthcare data, corroborating sources,
documenting metadta</p>
<p> </p>
<p> 2. Curating data and developing templates for ongoing records
management to help SL maintain the accuracy of the information
over time</p>
<p> </p>
<p> 3. Communication protocols between health facilities to manage
information and coordinate capacity.</p>
<p> </p>
<p> 4. Define Data Governance program components to integrate
health information management with government and civil society
stakeholders as part of Open Government Initiative</p>
<p> </p>
<p> 5. Develop educational materials to enable the governments of
liberia and sierra leone to skill up on Open Data and Data
Governance and become self-sufficient.</p>
<p> </p>
<p> 6. Provide data Visualization Workstreams & Analytics to
make data consumable by the citizens. </p>
<p> <br>
We are working closely with the governments of Sierra Leone and
Liberia, the Open Government Partnership, the UN Mission for
Ebola Emergency Response, the World Bank, USAID, CDC, WHO, and
many others. </p>
<p> <br>
We are meeting in NYC, Washington DC, Winchester UK, Freetown,
Monrovia, and Kampala on February 21st in a globally coordinated
Ebola Open Data Jam to collect, curate and publish datasets,
photos, videos, and other rich media which describe the
healthcare capabilities of West African nations confronting the
Ebola Epidemic. We want to empower these nations with accurate
information about their own health capabilities to better govern
the availability of resources and build health security.</p><span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888">
