[wanabidii] 2013 Annual Report of the Open Government Partnership (OGP)

Tuesday, February 18, 2014

The Open Government Partnership (OGP) continued to grow in 2013, but just as importantly took steps to strengthen institutionally in order to support meaningful open government reforms in participating countries.

To ensure accountability for results, OGP now has a fully operational Independent Reporting Mechanism (IRM). In 2013, the IRM made huge strides in building a team, developing a research method, hiring and training local researchers, and producing the first round of progress reports for the founding 8 OGP countries

In terms of building the infrastructure to deliver, OGP significantly increased its online visibility and accessibility through the complete overhaul of our website. We were able to launch the new website approximately 2 weeks before the London Summit, complete with an interactive Summit sub-site that featured live-streaming of numerous sessions. By the end 2013, OGP was in a much better financial position, having secured financial contributions from 8 of the 9 government Steering Committee members, as well as from four private foundations. As a result, the Support Unit has been able to hire several additional staff people to fill key roles: a Program Manager for Direct Country Support, a Program Manager for Peer Exchange, and a Program Officer for Learning and Impact.
