Overview
The Open Government Partnership is a multistakeholder initiative with more than 75 national and 100 local government members that aims to secure concrete commitments from governments to promote transparency, empower citizens, and fight corruption. Over the past two years, the partnership expanded its subnational program from a pilot cohort of 15 local governments to over 100, which will result in more than 500 concrete policy reforms. They continued their "Break the Roles" campaign to center gender in the governance commitments of member governments, and launched a new campaign advocating for "Open
Response + Open Recovery" as member governments respond to COVID-19. During this grant period, the partnership will celebrate its 10-year anniversary with a global campaign to renew democracy. A two-year developmental evaluation will conclude with key lessons about the partnership’s contribution to specific federal and subnational policy reforms in Colombia, Ukraine, Kenya, and the Philippines.
