Norway’s national open data portal,   data.norge.no , sets itself apart with an innovative AI-powered search function that allows users to find datasets using natural, everyday language. This approach reflects the portal’s broader commitment to usability, making it easier for all types of users to engage with public data. Building on this user-first design, the portal’s AI tool interprets plain language queries and returns relevant datasets – helping users discover information even without technical terms or predefined keywords. This feature was presented during the   Open Data Days 2025   in

Citizen science is an engagement method that actively involves citizens in various stages of the scientific research process. Citizens may contribute to problem definition, quality assurance, data collection and analysis, and interpretation. This citizen-collaborative approach provides local involvement and the opportunity to expand the knowledge base, making research more accessible and inclusive. Citizens have become significant providers of data. The European Citizen Science platform (ECS) is a central hub that offers an overview of over 300 citizen science projects across the ÐÒÔËÂÖÅÌ. The ESC

Why do floods hit some regions harder than others? Who has the time to rest—and who doesn’t? From the risks of natural disasters to the hidden inequalities in how people spend their days, data can help us tell powerful stories about the world we live in. But complex datasets alone don’t always make for easy reading. To make these complex datasets more understandable and accessible, we have created a growing series of visual, interactive narratives that brings high-value datasets to life as interactive data stories . These stories combine text, visuals, and interactive elements to create
