The introduction of open government in any give adopting country since 2011 had inspired adjustments that enable its successful implementation by operating under certain standards. One of these adjustments addresses the generation of an in-country multi-stakeholder process willing to work towards establishing open government commitments to be embraced.

With the initiative to develop the very first national open government action plan in Belize in 2020, this project seeks to contribute in the preparation of those stakeholders willing to participate of co-creation processes by providing three basic training sessions on fundamentals of their role and expected actions. Upon successful completion of the training sessions, participants would have acquired the necessary proficiency to engage in the co-creation of the national action plan.

This session is intended to provide an in-depth overview of the standards and practices when developing open government national action plans. What are actions plans, what’s in them, and how to get there, will be all topics to be covered. We will dive into the processes that had enable co-creation, also looking at the specific case of Uruguay, where government and civil society have incrementally progressed in the embracing of open government.

Only participants attending all sessions (in person or through webinar) will receive a certificate of completion.
