Designing effective responses to public policy challenges is heavily dependent on evidence. Evidence is dependent on good data. In the present day "Open Data" is the future. More data has been produced globally in the last two years than in the previous 3000 years of human activity. Most of this data is openly accessible. Therefore, the future challenge for decision-makers is not finding data: the challenge is efficiently managing and digesting the explosion of public data. The Bangladesh Peace Observatory (BPO) is a response to the challenge. The BPO is a research facility housed at the Centre for Genocide Studies at the University of Dhaka, which seeks to harness the power of Open Data to advance knowledge and understanding of peace and development in the country. The BPO will focus on the pressing and interconnected issues of the youth bulge, violence prevention, and social cohesion. The Bangladesh Peace Observatory brings together different streams of publicly available data on violence, analyses and visualizes them in a useful and interactive way for decision makers, civil society and media to understand, consume, and debate.
