The Open Gov Guide
The Open Gov Guide is the go-to resource for open government reformers. The guide provides concrete recommendations for policy makers, civil society representatives, and more on how to apply open government principles to real-world challenges. Readers can also use the guide to learn more about how governments at the national and local level are putting these values into practice through OGP action plans and beyond.
Policy areas related to inclusion are mainstreamed across chapters of the Open Gov Guide.

LIBERIA
Increase Youth Participation through Digital Inclusion
Young people in Liberia, especially those in rural areas, face barriers to participating in policy-making due to limited access to digital tools and resources. To close this gap, the government is launching a national program to strengthen youth civic engagement. The initiative will establish digital youth hubs across the country, create an open data platform for youth input in policy-making, and deliver capacity-building programs to enhance digital literacy.
METSAMOR, ARMENIA
Improve Youth Participation in Decision-Making
In Metsamor (Armenia), young people are active in the community but lack opportunities to influence decision-making. The government committed to creating a Young Ambassadors Network and a municipal advisory body, which will allow youth representatives to participate in policy-making. The government will also provide leadership training and develop a policy to better integrate the perspectives of young people into local governance.
Youth-Led Sustainable Development Projects
Communities in North Santander (Colombia) do not have access to information on climate and environment strategies that could help improve their quality of life. This commitment would help fill this gap by training young leaders to promote sustainable development in the department.
All Commitments by OGP Members
Explore all inclusion commitments from OGP members.
The following list reflects commitments submitted through national or local action plans. For more details, visit OGP’s Data Dashboard.
Filter the commitments according to three categories evaluated by the Independent Reporting Mechanism (IRM): ambition, completion, and early results.
- Ambition: Beginning with 2020 action plans, the IRM assesses ambition using an indicator called “Potential for Results.” This indicator is an early marker of a commitment’s potential to yield meaningful results, based on how the commitment is articulated in the action plan and the state of play in the respective policy area.
- Completion: For each commitment, OGP’s Independent Reporting Mechanism (IRM) evaluates the degree to which the activities outlined in the commitment were implemented.
- Early Results: Beginning with 2021 action plans, the IRM assesses commitment results using an indicator called “Early Results”. This indicator compares the state of transparency, citizen participation, and/or public accountability before the action plan with the state at the end of the action plan.
