As part of Open Gov Week 2026, this roundtable will bring together young people, media practitioners, and civil society actors to explore the role of youth in advancing transparency, accountability, and inclusive social protection systems in Kaduna State. The session will create a platform for young people to:
Share perspectives on social protection programmes

Highlight their role in monitoring, advocacy, and reform

Engage directly with the media on improving coverage of social protection, shock responsive climate financing and OGP processes

Discussions will also focus on how youth groups and media platforms can amplify youth voices and strengthen public understanding of ongoing reforms.

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.
