Agencia de Gestión Urbana de la Ciudad de México

The Laboratorio para la Ciudad (Labplc) is an office of civic innovation that sits within the newly created Mexico City manager's office. The LabPLC is in charge of projects related to open data, e-government, transparency, and the use of new platforms and technology to engage civil society and will act as a bridge between all city departments and civil society. In addition, the Labplc is the first international partner of Code for America and has launched its first generation of Código DF fellows who work on transportation, health, tourism, environment, and economic development. This planning grant would allow the LabPLC to establish a working group of leading government officials to create an open data strategy for Mexico City.
