Creating a More Informed Society

A world where knowledge creates power for the many, not the few.

Who we Are ?

OK Somalia is a local chapter of Open Knowledge International, a non-profit organization that advocates for the use of open data to solve social problems. OK Somalia was founded by a group of technology enthusiasts who are passionate about open data, semantic web, and open science. We work to promote open data through community engagement, awareness campaigns, and training. Our goal is to help people understand open data and use it to improve their lives. We believe that open data has the potential to make a positive impact on the lives of people in Somalia.
