The Network is represented in Sweden by an official chapter, Open Knowledge Sweden (OKS), a non-profit organisation founded in 2014. The key mission of the organisation is to foster transparency, accountability and public participation. We do this through the promotion of civic tech initiatives, open data, open knowledge, as well as by research and knowledge dissemination in the public, private and civic sectors.
