In February we introduced you to NTEN''s Communities of Impact (CoI), a pilot program whose 19 participants are spending this year looking at ways nonprofits measure, learn from, and share their data. One of the CoI cohorts recently launched a survey to better understand how nonprofits and NGOs around the world use data.

Dear #12NTC - The NTC concluded last night, and then began the fun (and I am not being sarcastic here) of answering the question, "How'd it go?" To be honest, for NTEN staff, the bar for this show was pretty low. This is the most fun I have had at the NTC!" As usual, I leave the NTC with many more ideas (and questions!)
