players”

monopolies and divides”
• “This research data is only meaningful
in specific context [and only I
understand that…]”
• “Somebody has to pay!”

16. What is GODAN

• Knowledge Network

17. “I went through this Responsible Data in Agriculture brochure that’s
online and it strikes me how much it applies, in concrete terms, to
the data revolution that is part and parcel of the 2030 agenda for
sustainable development.” Thomas Gass, UN-DESA

22. An example to follow?
Second Payment Service Directive,
or “PSD2”….
….. will compel banks to share data
easily with licensed third parties (if
that is what their account-holders
want)……..
