Overview
The Institute for Multi-Stakeholder Initiative Integrity (MSI Integrity) conducts research on the governance and impact of voluntary initiatives that bring together government, civil society, and the private sector to address complex governance and development problems. MSI Integrity’s research aims to strengthen existing multi-stakeholder initiatives by investigating and documenting whether, when, and how these efforts are effective. During this grant period, MSI Integrity plans to broaden its research to include whether and how these initiatives reflect and are responsive to the voices of citizens.

Grants to this Grantee
for board development
The Institute for Multi-Stakeholder Initiative Integrity (MSI-Integrity) conducts research on initiatives that bring together governments, businesses, and non-governmental organizations to address issues of common and general interest. MSI-Integrity started off intending to maintain a lean staff and outsourced systems. Over time, it has become apparent that they need to strengthen their governance systems in order to keep up with their expanding role in the transparency and accountability field. A strong MSI-Integrity will advance our understanding of the many multi-stakeholder initiatives (MSIs) that we support - the OGP, EITI, IATI, GIFT etc. - and inform our future relationship to these and other MSIs.
