Anti Corruption / transparency
Give it a try :-)
You are a civil servant responsible for fighting corruption in your country
1. Make groups of 3
2. Each group member individualy writes down 3 datasets important for fighting corruption.
3. 1 dataset is open data, 2 datasets are closed data.
4. Discuss the datasets you have written down.
Disaster!!
Your datasets are stolen by thieves who want to do really bad!!
(and now you are the thief ;-)
Discuss with your group how can make a really bad application which is really criminal and will make you rich ;-)
