Since 2012 ODM has been interested in the idea of cooperative data ownership and management. This thread is a discussion about matters relating to data cooperatives and other alternative forms of data management.
We ran an number of workshops in 2014 looking at data cooperatives and the workshop report can be found on Github research/OPEN DATA COOPERATION Workshop report.pdf at master · OpenDataManchester/research · GitHub
