Overview
Tides Center hosts the secretariat—the "Support Unit"—of the Open Government Partnership, an international platform for advancing open governance reforms. In Partnership member countries, which now number sixty-five, government officials and civil society champions jointly develop and implement commitments to improve government transparency, accountability, and responsiveness to citizens. The secretariat would support and empower government reformers with technical expertise, foster the engagement of a more diverse group of civil society actors, and ensure that participating countries are held accountable for making progress toward achieving their Partnership commitments.
