#tagcoding for Sierra Leone ?

Consider Principles of Innovation (Principles for Digital Development) #pi9 - Be collaborative. By suitably #tagcoding genuine content, stakeholders and donors can contribute it to an open domestic and global conversation on governance, knowledge sharing and innovation for sustainable development, the economic activities and functions of government in Sierra Leone, its cities and municipalities. By providing low-hurdle access to open data that matters to a particular context or trade, stakeholders are empowered to add data-driven elements to the discourse and their learning.

In a #tag2wiki step, the #tagcoded content can be curated, analysed, and shared and conflicting viewpoints can be covered in wiki sector maps and maps of the functions of government, as part of Sierra Leone's planning for inclusive and sustainable development1.

This reference page for Sierra Leone is not intended for being read in a linear way. Rather, it must be used as a "4 dimensional topic map" for a knowledge and data driven development discourse in Sierra Leone. The reader with an interest in a particular topic can quickly find open data and other content on that "topic in its context and dimension". Before contributing new content, we recommend the reader to minimally check the content that is (referenced) on this page, and to keep in mind Principles of Innovation (Principles for Digital Development) #pi7 - Reuse and improve. For what concerns the reuse, improving or addition of new content, we recommend the use of the suitable hashtag with awareness of its dimension (lgu, sdg, isic or cofog).

#SLlgu tags for administrative units, with curated open data.

Learn about the administrative unit of Sierra Leone, the province, via the The Republic of Sierra Leone,and the Statistics Sierra Leone website.

#SLlgu tags combine the ISO country code SL with the numerical part of the ADM1 Code for the province

Note: As there is no domestically defined geocode for each province, we use the numerical part of the ADM1 code2. Obtain that code from the ADM1 Code Search module by entering Sierra Leone's GEC country code: SL3.
