Promoting Transparent, Effective and Accountable Government
Overview
The goal of this work is to improve the transparency, accountability and inclusiveness of government institutions and processes.
The Challenge
Half of the world's population now lives in democratic societies, but government neglect, corruption and lack of transparency continue to hinder efforts to implement policies needed to improve people's lives.
What We're Doing
To ensure that governments protect the rights of all people and are responsive to their needs, we support community-driven efforts to improve the transparency and integrity of government institutions and processes; encourage broad participation in establishing public priorities and policies; and promote effective implementation and oversight of public programs.
