Open Government Partnership 2019-2021 (2024) Open Government Partnership 2019-2021 (2024) Insatsen avser ett kärnstöd till organisationen Open Government Partnership om totalt 45 MSEK under en treårsperiod 2019-2021. 

Open Government Partnership är ett multi-intressent-initiativ som startade 2011 med syfte att övertyga regeringar om insatser för att främja öppenhet, stärka medborgarinflytande bekämpa korruption och använda gemensamt utvecklade metoder för att stärka samhällsstyrningen. Open Government Partnership består för närvarande av 79 nationella och 20 lokala regeringar och ett tusental civilsamhällesorganisationer. För att bli medlem i Open Government Partnership måste regeringar uppfylla de villkor som är uppställda, göra ett offentligt uttalande om öppenhet, utverka en nationell handlingsplan med hjälp av medborgarkonsultationer och rapportera utvecklingen med hjälp av den oberoende översynsmekanism som finns i initiativet. 

Open Government Partnerships vision är formulerad som att "fler regeringar ska bli mer transparenta, mer ansvarstagande och mer lyhörda för sina medborgares deltagande med slutgiltigt mål att förbättra styrning och samhällsservice". Arbetet kretsar kring nationella handlingsplaner som tas fram i en gemensam process mellan regeringar och civila samhället. Open Government Partnership arbetar utifrån en strategi som uppdaterades 2016 och utgör vägledning för verksamheten. Strategin kommer att utvecklas under 2019 för att med utgångspunkt i nuvarande vision formulera vägar för att nå bättre genomslag fram till 2022.

Strategin omfattar följande områden: 
1) Ökat fokus på medborgarcentrerad samhällsstyrning
2) Breddat gemensamt ägarskap för nationella handlingsplaner
3) Ökad ambitionsnivå och lärande
4) Stärkt kapacitet, koordinering och nätverk för genomförande
5) Översyn av incitaments- och regelstruktur
6) Stärkt varumärke och kommunikationsstrategi

Total budget för 2019 är ca 12,4 MUSD. Budgetarna för 2020 och 2021 är uppskattade till 13,4 MUSD. Total budget är ca 39,2 MUSD.
Sidas bidrag utgör knappt 10 %. The intervention concerns a core support of 45 MSEK during the three-year period 2019-2021. 

The Open Government Partnership (OGP) is a multi-stakeholder initiative established in 2011 aimed at securing commitments from governments to promote transparency, empower citizens, fight corruption and harness new technologies to strengthen governance. OGP currently comprises of 79 national and 20 local governments and some thousand civil society organisations. To become a member of OGP, governments must meet OGP's elibility criteria, endorse a high-level Open Government Declaration, deliver a National Action Plan (NAP) developed through public consultations, and commit to independent reporting on their progress through the Independent Review Mechanism (IRM). 

OGP is directed by a strategy for 2015-2018 that was "refreshed" in 2016 to more clearly articulate the vision and identify the best means to work for that. By early 2020 OGP will complete a medium-term planning process, with the goal of developing a three-year implementation plan and budget (2020-2022). This implementation plan will not lay out a new vision for OGP but will focus on collective results that are aimed to be achieved in three years and how this will happen.

The strategy focusses on the following areas:
1) Deepen citizen-centered gocvernance
2) Broaden collective ownership of OGP domestically
3) Raise collective ambition, peer exchange and learning across OGP countries
4) Strengthen capacity, coordination and coalitions for implementation
5) Review performance incentives and rules of engagement
6) Strengthen the OGP brand and communications strategy

The total budget for 2019 is about 12.4 MUSD. The budgets for 2020 and 2021 are estimated to 13.4 MUSD respectively. Total budget amounts to approximately 39.2 MUSD. 
Sida's contribution constitutes a little less than 10 % for each year. The Open Government Partnership (OGP) is a multi-stakeholder initiative established in 2011, aimed at securing commitments from governments to promote transparency, empower citizens, fight corruption and harness new technologies to strengthen governance. OGP currently comprises 75 national and 104 local governments and thousands of civil society organizations. To become a member of OGP, governments must meet OGPs eligibility criteria, endorse a high-level Open Government Declaration, deliver a National Action Plan (NAP) developed through public consultations, and commit to independent reporting on their progress through the Independent Review Mechanism (IRM).

OGP launched its 2023-28 strategy in 2023, after a year-long consultation process with a large community of government leaders, public servants, civil society, international partners, media and others. The result is a renewed vision for OGP as a more political, values-based partnership
rooted in specific actions, innovations, and ideas for more open and democratic governments that meet citizens expectations. OGPs mission as part of the new strategy is to inspire, connect, and enable an ever-growing community of reformers and champions from government and
civil society to take action together. OGP will achieve this by pursuing five mutually reinforcing goals:
Strategic Goal 1:
- Build a growing, committed, and interconnected community of open government reformers, activists, and champions
-  Build a stronger, more political global coalition for open government
-  Invest in leadership development for reformers
-  Expand strategic alliances and partnerships to reinforce open government principles

Strategic Goal 2: Make open government central to how all levels and branches of
government function and deliver on their priorities
 - Provide a flexible action framework fit for diverse contexts and needs
-  Support mainstreaming of open government at all levels and branches of government work
-  Be more responsive to windows of political opportunity

Strategic Goal 3: Protect and expand civic space
- Encourage civic space action and cultivate champions
-  Enforce and periodically review OGP policies on civic space

Strategic Goal 4: Accelerate collective progress on open government reforms
 - Raise the bar on transparency, accountability, participation, and inclusion
-  Launch a Partnership-wide challenge to promote collective action on ten priority areas (more information on the Open Gov Challenge below)

Strategic Goal 5: Become the home of inspirational open government innovations, evidence, and stories
- Develop, curate and share high quality content
-  Create spaces for people to share their stories and connect
