About the Network

OGP convenes an informal network of implementing governments, mobilizing a cross-country coalition of those working on algorithmic accountability. The network currently includes countries that are implementing reforms on opening algorithms, including through commitments in their OGP action plans. It includes representatives from the Governments of Canada, Finland, France, New Zealand, the Netherlands, Scotland, and the United Kingdom.

The network convenes quarterly to discuss issues around implementation. The network meetings also include civil society partners and other experts, based on the topic of discussion.
