Research and Evaluation meeting - 4th June 2015
360giving and Open Data – Alice Casey, Senior Development Manager, Nesta
Alice Casey is a Senior Manager at Nesta. She leads a range of projects that explore how digital technology can be used for social impact, including leading Nesta's practical work on Crowdfunding and co-developing the 360Giving open funding data movement.
This presentation looked at the ways that funding bodies are exploring the potential of open data for analysis and impact measurement; including what is happening now in the UK and internationally; and what developments we can expect to see in the future.
Participants brought some of their own experiences of using data to inform their work - and the group discussed collective challenges and aspirations for the future.
