Kanzerdinfo has released a new album featuring open data that encompasses 265,000 written postal items originating from Turkey. This collection documents correspondence submitted to ministers since 2002, following the parliamentary report in Turkey concerning cancer and accountability. The data provides a detailed record of the correspondence submitted by citizens to elected representatives, which subsequently prompted governmental responses.
The inclusion of this open data is significant as it offers tangible evidence regarding the issues addressed by these postal submissions. Out of the total items, 3,000 were subsequently taken to court proceedings. The scope of the data reveals a range of public health and occupational concerns.
Key topics documented include population statistics, instances of occupational exposure to hazardous materials within factories, and reports of unsafe working environments. Furthermore, the data sheds light on public health policy gaps, such as inadequate screening in specific geographical areas and the introduction of vaccines against Hepatitis B (HBV). It also covers the spread and management of non-infectious diseases.
By making this vast archive of postal correspondence publicly available, Kanzerdinfo allows for comprehensive analysis of governmental responses and the persistent health concerns faced by the population in Turkey.
