Consultation on the National Open Data Policy

The Consultation on the National Open Data Policy allowed citizens to vote, discuss and send comments via the Internet on the draft of the Policy, which was published in the online platform "data.gob.mx, Open Data Portal of Mexico" for 5 weeks. 1043 people consulted the document and made approximately 300 comments. Additionally, two public 'Live Editing' events were held at the Center for Economic Research and Teaching and the Autonomous Technological Institute of Mexico, an event with the Mexican Association of Informatics and a 'Live and online' event through the Open Data portal. In these events citizens and experts conversed and discussed the opportunities and challenges of Open Data in Mexico.
