2023 OECD Open, Useful and Re-usable data (OURdata) Index
Results and key findings
Open government data has become a vital instrument for addressing both longstanding
and emerging policy issues. In particular, the recent pandemic and the green transition
have underscored the need for governments to ensure access to timely, relevant, and
high-quality data to foster resilience and facilitate a comprehensive whole-of-society
response. This paper presents the main findings of the fourth edition of the OECD
Open, Useful, and Re-usable data (OURdata) Index for 2023, which benchmarks efforts
made by governments to design and implement national open government data policies.
It encompasses over 670 data points collected from 36 OECD countries and 4 accession
countries throughout 2022.
