Value proposition

Putting open and shared data into action for public good

The Center for Open Data Enterprise (CODE) is an independent nonprofit organization based in Washington, D.C. Founded in January 2015, CODE works in the areas of climate adaptation and resilience, health, equity, and democratizing data. We collaborate with diverse partners, including federal and state governments, academia, international organizations, private entities, and representatives from civil society and communities. As an organization, we aim to foster dialogue and dissemination around data for public good and social justice in the areas of climate, health, equity, and democratizing data. We connect the government and communities to discuss the use of data and its challenges around transparency, accessibility, and accountability, thereby enhancing the value and impact of data-driven initiatives. This inclusive engagement underscores the significance of open data in fostering a more interconnected and informed society.
