Transparency & Accountability Initiative Report: Opening Government

As part of the Open Government Partnership, the Transparency & Accountability Initiative recently published a new report on current best practices and the practical steps for opening government. The report details the state of the art in transparency, accountability and citizen participation across 15 areas of governance, ranging from broad categories such as access to information, service delivery and budgeting to more specific sectors such as forestry, procurement and climate finance.

The report is downloadable as a pdf and embedded below.

    This is a truly excellent report, full of great ideas on how countries at different levels of openness can take steps – initial steps, substantial steps, or ambitious steps – on the path to more open government, with greater transparency, accountability and civic participation in governance.

    It’s practical, pragmatic, well thought through, well presented, stimulating, exciting and realistic.

    It’s a must read!
