Editor's Notes
- ???
- Communities – including marginalized – hold latent information about themselves and are the most reliable, important knowledge-holders for any planned development. Technology provides a means for communities to share, debate, and contribute impactfully to dialogue around development, even creating parallel information resources that bypass traditional means of data collection. Crowd-sourced information and citizen reporting are critical means for these communities to have greater influence over policies and perceptions that affect them. The open-source concept has huge potential to change the way development is practiced and allow for greater responsiveness and collaboration. Open source technology and the sea change in journalism practice have far-reaching implications for the poor and marginalized, as information itself is democratized.
