-====== Open Telecom Data ======
+====== Welcome to the Open Telecom Data wiki ======
-As the value of being connected to communication infrastructure grows, those without access are increasingly left behind.  In order to ensure everyone has affordable access to communication more transparency in the telecommunications sector is required to better understand who is unconnected and what opportunities exist to solve connectivity challenges.  Adopting Open Data policies and approaches in telecommunications will enable a more constructive debate on access among civil society organisations, government, and industry.
+This wiki gathers examples of good practice in transparency in the telecom sector.  It also carries country profiles of regulations as they relate to community networks and small scale operators. Click on the links in orange to explore either theme.
-This site exists to examine specific aspects of telecommunications infrastructure and look at examples of good practice in transparency in those areas.  This includes fibre optic backbone infrastructure, tower networks, wireless spectrum assignments, and national backhaul network pricing.
