This document summarizes an exploratory study on the role and impact of open data technology intermediaries in Kenya. The study assessed how intermediary applications affect citizen awareness of open data availability, increase data consumption and use, and impact governance. A mixed methodology was used, including surveys, interviews, and user experience research. Emerging findings showed that while citizens access some government data, awareness of open data initiatives is low. Data quality issues also hindered use. Well-designed intermediary platforms can enhance access and usability of open data.
