Open Development Initiative (ODI) is a project of the East-West Management Institute, and sheds light on development trends in the Mekong Delta Region. Its objective is to increase public awareness, enable individual analysis, improve information sharing, and inform rigorous debate – all contributing to sustainable development in the region from a social, economic and environmental perspective. By combining open data, data visualization, and research, ODI offers one-stop shopping on development data. This data is presented with context but without editorial comment and is perceived as credible and objective across sectors.
