Nord Ouvert

Open North is part of the growing civic technology sector in North America. Open North works with governments, media and civil society to connect citizens and decision-makers and to provide citizens with the information and tools they need to track and influence the decision-making processes of government. Within its first 3 years, Open North has established itself as a leader in budget consultation, open government and open data and is looking forward to further growth.

Open North’s work on open data standards has been adopted by large organizations such as the Sunlight Foundation and mySociety. Its team and its Board members are regularly invited to comment on open government and have considerable influence on the development of open government. In Canada, Open North is also known for creating the API Represent, the OpenParliament tool, the Connexité incubator as well as its role in creating the websites  Vuesurlescontrats and MaMairie.

Open North’s activities further its social mission to increase government transparency and to educate and empower citizens to exercise their political influence and participate actively in decision-making processes.
