Cette sous-section détaille la vision stratégique du gouvernement ouvert dans votre région qui devrait guider les engagements pour la période du plan d'action.

Quelle est la vision à long terme d'un gouvernement ouvert dans votre contexte et votre juridiction ?

Le vision à long terme for open government in the City of Zagreb is aligned with its broader development vision of a green, innovative, and sustainable city, as defined in the Development Plan 2021–2027. Open government is seen as a central driver of transparent, accountable, and participatory governance, where citizens have access to timely information, can engage in decision-making, and monitor the use of public resources.

To achieve this, we aim to strengthen participatory mechanisms, improve fiscal transparency, and advance the digitalization of public administration. This includes developing tools for tracking participatory budgeting projects and public spending, increasing transparency in public procurement and management of city assets, digitalizing recruitment processes, and enhancing communication with citizens through integrated digital systems, contributing to a more open, efficient, and trustworthy administration.

At the same time, the City has advanced the digitalization of public administration, including e-services, paperless processes, and digital tools that improve efficiency and communication with citizens.

To strengthen accountability, tools such as the “ZG Whistleblower” platform have been introduced, while platforms like the Zagreb Smart City Hub provide centralized access to data and information on city projects.

In fiscal openness, the main challenge is ensuring that data on public spending, procurement, and city assets is comprehensive, accessible, and user-friendly. Although data exists, it remains fragmented and insufficiently standardized, limiting its usability and effectiveness for public oversight.
