Podcast: Open Data and Personal Data Protection

On this episode I had a chat with Al Kags who the founder of the Open Institute, an African organisation that works with governments and civil society organisations to promote open government and citizen engagement. We discussed the place of open data in development and the interface between open data and personal data protection. Al highlights some of the strategies that Open Institute has adopted to comply with personal data protection principles. He also has tips on how individuals may protect their personal data and offers reflections on the future of open data and personal data regulation in Kenya.
