Overview
Global Integrity carries out fieldwork to assess the existence and effectiveness of anti-corruption, transparency, and accountability mechanisms in more than 100 countries around the world. From its experience working with diverse organizations and individual researchers, GI has developed a tool called Indaba that helps teams in the field manage projects that collect and process data. Indaba is a Web-based interface that improves work flow, streamlines communications, and facilitates report writing, editing, and publishing. With this grant, GI would partner with other key Hewlett grantees and the broader community of transparency and accountability groups by sharing the Indaba platform and tailoring it to their needs. GI anticipates that Indaba will help like-minded groups collect data more accurately and efficiently, thereby accelerating the pace of transparency and accountability reforms around the world.
