IOI's strategic plan sets out our priorities, goals, and theory of change for 2024–2027.
Open infrastructure is strongest when it is governed by the communities it serves, with transparent decision-making and shared ownership.
Long-term viability depends on funding models that are resilient, diversified, and aligned with the needs of the ecosystem.
Infrastructure thrives when supported by a coordinated network of funders, institutions, and partners working toward shared goals.
