# Open Knowledge Foundation #

Our mission is to create a more open world - a world where all non-personal information is open, free for everyone to use, build on and share; and creators and innovators are fairly recognized and rewarded. Through teaching, creating and campaigning, we are working for a fair, free and open future for all. Confronting the multi-complex challenges that the planet is facing today, we're working for open knowledge to be a guiding principle in designing the infrastructures and organisations of the future, inspiring and guiding those who want to transform our digital and physical world by building a free, sustainable and inclusive future.
