Openpolis is an independent nonprofit foundation based in Rome, Lazio, Italy, focused on expanding access to public information, promoting transparency, and supporting democratic participation. Founded in 2006, it emphasizes a data-informed approach and manages the data lifecycle from collection to the development of platforms that make information accessible. Its work covers topics such as environment, current affairs, governance, educational inequality, innovation, gender equality, international cooperation, and migration, with data-driven stories and investigations freely available across its channels. Its audience includes communities, institutions, media, researchers, and activist networks seeking reliable data to inform participation. A recent collaboration with ActionAid International in 2022 resulted in an online platform to map migrants centers in Italy.
