A shared starting point for Geneva's data
What becomes possible when local knowledge, shared questions and careful stewardship meet?
Useful data work starts with questions people care about and relationships that make shared work possible. This example initiative brings residents, researchers and civic organisations together to ask how data can be cared for, described and used responsibly across different institutional and contractual settings. A first step is to understand the legal, technical and organisational conditions that shape access, stewardship and reuse, then develop small, reproducible experiments that participants can scrutinise.
