Leveraging OGP Action Plans to Meet EU Membership Requirements
The OGP Independent Reporting Mechanisms explores how Georgia, the Republic of Moldova, and Ukraine can leverage their future action plans as they pursue EU membership.
2020-2022
Action Plan 5
Many of Ukraine’s 14 commitments build on existing transparency initiatives. The three most promising commitments have clear objectives and substantial potential for results, while some other commitments are not relevant to open government or unclear about how they would overcome past obstacles to implementation. Reinstating the multistakeholder coordination framework needs to ensure effective oversight of implementation as well as relevant and ambitious commitments in future action plans.
Ukraine’s fifth action plan includes 14 commitments. Over half of the commitments focus on transparency in policy areas such as the state budget, public assets, beneficial ownership, the extractives industry, road and infrastructure projects, disability, and gender.
The OGP Independent Reporting Mechanisms explores how Georgia, the Republic of Moldova, and Ukraine can leverage their future action plans as they pursue EU membership.
Take a look at Ukraine’s 10-year journey as a champion in OGP, their progress that has been tragically interrupted by the war, and how reformers continue to live by and fight for the principles of open government.
Learn about this multi-year collaboration that aims strengthen the support and resources available to country reformers in the region to deepen reforms and advance bold, new ideas in areas like strengthening public service delivery, opening civic space, promoting a fair justice system and fighting corruption.

This section captures how each OGP member can play a leadership role, based on IRM-based findings and third-party scores. This list does not cover all of open government and OGP members are not required to take any action.
These are recommendations on the role that each OGP member might play in each policy area. The recommendations are derived from a combination of the IRM-based findings and third-party scores.
