PERSOONLIJK NIEUWS: Vandaag, op International Right to Know Day, begin ik samen met de geweldige @lisethamming de eerste organisatie in Nederland die zich gaat inzetten voor de versterking van de rechten van Wob-verzoekers: SPOON 1/
Dat is hard nodig. Al jaren lopen termijnoverschrijdingen steeds verder uit de hand, dwangsommen maken geen enkele indruk, de informatiehuishouding van de overheid is een puinhoop, de lakstift wordt veel te kwistig gehanteerd. De nieuwe Woo heeft daarin nog niks veranderd. 2/

Universal access to information is a cornerstone of healthy and inclusive knowledge societies #AccessToInfoDay #AccessToInfoKE #RightToKnow
Universal access to information means that everyone has the right to seek, receive and impart information. This right is an integral part of the right to freedom of expression.
The media plays a crucial role in informing the public about issues of interest, but it relies on the ability to seek and receive information, too. Hence, the right to universal access to information is also bound up with the right to freedom of the press #RightToKnow
