The document discusses open government data (OGD) in Kenya. It analyzes Kenya's OGD using the Open Data Index and Open Data Barometer, which both indicate a gap between Kenya's readiness for OGD and its actual impact. While Kenya has the basic requirements for OGD like data, technology platforms, and demand, widespread uptake and use of OGD is limited, possibly due to socioeconomic factors and lack of an open government. Successful OGD requires collaboration between government, civil society, and private sector, with an open government best supporting OGD.
