Una plataforma de datos abiertos pro-transpariencia con 1110 currículums de políticos: ePolitic

ePolitic proposed unifying political curricula into open data, facilitating transparency and analysis for journalists and citizens. Although initially promising by centralizing information on public officials, the project faced significant challenges regarding the completeness of the available data. The initiative demonstrated the technical feasibility of structuring political profiles as accessible data, promoting the use of formats such as CSV and APIs. However, its limited real-world coverage restricted its immediate impact as a comprehensive tool for political accountability. Ultimately, the project failed when it was abandoned, highlighting the sustainability challenges inherent in citizen science initiatives. Its significance lies in illustrating the importance of active governance and continuous participation to keep open data infrastructure alive and prevent the deterioration of public digital resources.
