Open Government Data Camp 2011 is but a few days away, and we’re looking forward to seeing loads of you in Warsaw. Also joining us in Warsaw, for a keynote address, we’re really pleased to announce Ellen Miller from the Sunlight Foundation!
###About Ellen
Ellen S. Miller is the co-founder and executive director of the
Sunlight Foundation, a Washington-based, non-partisan non-profit
dedicated to using the power of the Internet to catalyze greater
government openness and transparency. She is the founder of two other
prominent Washington-based organizations in the field of money and
politics — the Center for Responsive Politics and Public Campaign —
and a nationally recognized expert on transparency and the influence
of money in politics. Her experience as a Washington advocate for more
than 35 years spans the worlds of non-profit advocacy, grassroots
activism and journalism.
Regarding her keynote, Ellen writes:
“I will be showcasing some of my organization’s efforts that are
designed to create accountability in government, using the web to make
influence and government activity more transparent. The presentation
will also cover the open data movement generally, and the growing
international movement for government transparency.”
