Establishing effective governance for Poland's national open government data strategy

This chapter examines the governance framework and institutional arrangements supporting open government data (OGD) implementation and the current capacity to steer strategy setting and implementation effectively in Poland. It emphasises the importance to create a collective commitment to the OGD agenda across the public sector and around common objectives. This requires a shift of organisational cultures that can only happen if individual institutions share a common vision and co-ordinate as partners for a common agenda instead of feeling obliged to fulfil a legal obligation.
