Global Open Data on Agriculture and Nutrition

Overview
The Global Open Data on Agriculture and Nutrition (GODAN), a partnership between the United States and the United Kingdom, aims to increase the quality, quantity, and timeliness of available data to support agriculture and nutrition efforts &mdash; as well as to increase the number and diversity of stakeholders who are applying data-based solutions to improve agriculture and nutrition.

This initiative will support public and private global efforts to make agriculture and nutrition data more available and easier to access. The United States will create an interagency group that will promote open data efforts in the public and private sectors and encourage new efforts to release agriculture and nutrition data.
