Government transparency
Governments have the responsibility to share information with citizens in a readily understandable way. Openness and accountability will help to strengthen democracies and guarantee trust. The process of demanding transparency should also include public participation and citizen engagement. These platforms were created with the goal of offering information on how governments are spending money or implementing policies and what are the best ways in which citizens could monitor these processes.
