Local Monitoring Body

Category: OGP Governance | Back to Glossary

Local Monitoring Bodies independently evaluate and assess the performance of OGP participating locals. Similar to the Independent Reporting Mechanism (IRM) for OGP countries, these bodies assess the co-creation process and results achieved from the implementation of commitments. They play a key role in the local action plan process as they provide lessons, ensure accountability, and add legitimacy to the process. More information can be found in the OGP Local Handbook and IRM in a Box: A Toolkit for OGP Local Monitoring Bodies.
