Our DSPS team has collaborated with Internet Society Hong Kong, in contribution to the Hong Kong Open Data Index Report 2021/2022. Our Programme Co-Director, Professor Wong served as the academic advisor; meanwhile, three of our students, Ms. Anna Ng, Ms. Miranda Ding, and Mr. Joi Fun Lam took up the role as researchers, to support the launch of the report. The report sheds light on the progress and development of open data in Hong Kong by assessing different data categories with multiple indicators. With additional foci such as data governance and data literacy, the report also strives for improving the value and impact of open data in Hong Kong with recommendations based on the research findings.
