Evidence continues to show that open government affects people’s lives. But there are still skeptics who are not aware of all the benefits associated with this approach. Use this guide to convince them to take an open government approach when implementing reforms.

Explore internal and external research on OGP, which informs our goals and strategy.

When eight governments and nine civil society leaders launched OGP in 2011, no one expected it to reach its current size and scope. Over the last ten years, however, OGP has grown in ways that have exceeded expectations.

As we reflect on the first 10 years of OGP and plan ahead for the next decade, we look back on data from nearly 200 OGP action plans and assess whether the platform is working as intended.

As OGP marks 10 years since its founding, see how the OGP platform and a growing global community of reformers in governments, civil society, business, media and international organizations have advanced a variety of policy areas.
