ALT September 28 is International Day for Universal Access to Information. For us at Hivos, it marks an important occasion to highlight the critical role that access to information plays across the various impact areas we work on with our partners: Climate Justice, Gender Equality, Diversity & Inclusion and Civic Rights.
Happy 10th birthday @opengovpart and all the best to the whole community for the important work lying ahead - as laid out inspiringly in @josephpowell's must-read thread & blog.
This week is 10 years since @BarackObama launched @opengovpart - it's been a rollercoaster ride with incredible bright spots and impact, despite a tough decade for democracy. Today, it's worth celebrating the amazing, resilient #opengov community #OGP10 opengovpartnership.org/stori…
