The DPGA, ITU, and WMO join together to co-author a report calling for f weather, climate, and hydrological information datasets to be made open and freely available as digital public goods.

Today, the Digital Public Goods Alliance is pleased to share our 2021 Annual Report. This report was written with contributions from over 20 organisations working in the digital public goods ecosystem, and showcases not just the work of the DPGA, but their work as well.

The DPGA is excited to work with the eGov Foundation on their DPG work including DIGIT, DISHHA, iFIX, DIVOC, and more over the coming year.

The Digital Public Goods Alliance has, over the past year, worked closely with Omidyar Network. Their leadership, particularly in the areas of digital public infrastructure, is part of the reason we’re thrilled to announce them today as a member of the Digital Public Goods Alliance.

Today, we are celebrating three new DPGs derived from that program, and the first cohort of DPGs from West Africa.

We are thrilled to welcome UN Global Pulse as the newest member of the Digital Public Goods Alliance.
