Introduction to Open Government

Guest access requires password

Open Government is a notion that has gained academic and political space by proposing a new way of governing our societies, as well as involving citizens in public affairs. 


This course aims to bring this new reality closer to the public interested in the scope and implications of Open Government.


The course will allow participants to know and understand the values, principles and fundamental concepts that underpin Open Government: a) Transparency, access to public information and accountability; b) Citizen participation; and c) Collaboration. It will also allow them to review Open Government implementation experiences and strategies.
