# Open Data Institute #  The ODI is a non-profit with a mission to work with companies and governments to build an open, trustworthy data ecosystem. We work with a range of organisations, governments, public bodies and civil society to create a world where data works for everyone. This means getting data to those who need it, particularly in response to the UN Sustainable Development Goals. We provide training, consultancy services, tools and guides that enable organisations to become more confident and capable in their stewardship and use of data.
