SHARE

This session aims to strengthen understanding of how transparency and accountability in the extractive sector can be advanced at the local level. Building on PH-EITI’s SET-UP-GO initiative, the event will explore how localized access to extractives data, participatory governance mechanisms, and national transparency frameworks support more effective decision-making in resource-rich communities. Participants will learn how open government and local governance reforms intersect to improve planning, budgeting, and oversight in extractive areas. The session also highlights the vital role of civil society and communities in ensuring that transparency leads to meaningful participation and more responsive local governance.

Comments are closed.

For one week in May, come together to share ideas, discuss solutions, and commit to new levels of citizen participation in government.

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.
