The Open Government Partnership

The Open Government Partnership (OGP) is a global initiative to make governments more transparent, effective and accountable. POGO has been working with other civil society organizations to outline a series of recommendations that include many of the reforms POGO has long-sought and provide the Obama administration with several ideas to ensure a robust U.S. action plan.
