Exploring Information Ethics for Inclusive Open Development

Open development refers to the ways in which new Information and Communications Technologies (ICTs) transform modes of participation and production, human development processes and access to knowledge resources. Open development, however, is not well‐defined and immanent developments have only recently begun to be categorised (Reilly and Smith, 2014). This means that there has been little exploration of open development in terms of its potential to influence intentional and existing development aid practices. This paper therefore intends to offer insight into how open development practices within relationships between donors and civil society organisations could be guided by an underlying information ethics. By considering the totality of relationships in an information environment, or the infosphere, open development may be more likely to ensure effective and inclusive human development outcomes.
