To celebrate #OpenGovWeek, the UNDP Open and Inclusive Public Sphere Team is launching a dynamic social media thread exploring the role of young people in open government. Through a curated series of posts on X, we’ll spotlight real-world stories, ask thoughtful questions, and highlight how youth are driving transparency, accountability, and innovation in governance.

From civic tech in Bangladesh to youth-led peacebuilding in conflict zones, this conversation will show how young people are not just participating in open government—they’re leading it.

We invite you to join the conversation, share your own examples, and help us amplify youth voices in governance. Posts will be shared via @UNDP4Youth channel.

Meet the moment. Raise ambition. Rise to the challenge.

The Open Government Challenge is a call to action for all members of OGP to raise ambition in ten areas of open government to help strengthen our democracies. Over the next five years, all members of the Partnership should aim to raise the ambition of reforms in 10 policy areas and demonstrate relevant progress in as many of the areas of the Challenge through their OGP action plans or beyond.We must act together to make a difference, because only when governments, public officials, and civil society work together, we see more ambitious and impactful reforms that transform our communities.

It’s our time to meet the moment. Let’s use Open Gov Week to take on the the Open Gov Challenge.
