As the Open Government Partnership (OGP) marks 15 years globally, this engagement aims to introduce grassroots youth and first-time participants to the principles and opportunities of open governance. The event will create awareness about OGP, its impact in Kaduna State, and how citizens can actively engage government processes. Participants will interact directly with OGP Technical Working Group co-chairs and stakeholders to learn about transparency, accountability, civic participation, and community-driven solutions. A key outcome of the engagement is to strengthen youth inclusion in governance by connecting participants to the wider OGP community and ongoing citizen engagement platforms.

15 Years of the Open Government Partnership

OGP Logo

Fifteen years ago, OGP launched with a simple but radical premise: that government should serve the people, not the other way around. Over fifteen years, OGP has become the foremost global forum for advancing transparency, accountability, and public participation in government.

In an era of democratic regression and geopolitical fragmentation, platforms that sustain targeted collaborations among likeminded states and between governments and civil society are strategically vital. OGP is one of the few to endure.

The next phase requires action across the partnership: Governments forming cross-border coalitions to address common priorities; political leaders integrating openness into core national agendas; donors and funders sustaining investment and enabling scale; civil society continuing to propose, push, monitor, and demand.

The question ahead is scale and commitment.
