Open Gov Briefings

There are many different elements involved in building more open government. To surface some of the different issues that the United Kingdom could look to address through it’s own Open Government Partnership National Action Plan, and through it’s co-chair leadership of the OGP, members of the UK OGP civil society network have put together a series of briefing papers.

If you would like to contribute a briefing to the series, please share your ideas on the Mailing List.
