Action Plan 5

  • Number of Commitments: 6
  • Policy Area Focus: Not specified

Sierra Leone’s fourth action plan saw a high level of implementation and notable early results. Coalitions of reformers increased civil society engagement in parliamentary activities and advanced legal reforms to open the extractives sector. The 2023 elections spurred electoral reforms while also delaying implementation of some commitments. The Sierra Leone OGP Secretariat and Steering Committee continued to oversee a collaborative and transparent OGP process. (More)

OGP Global Report Data

The data below is drawn from the 2019 OGP Global Report. You can view and learn more about the report here.

Selected Dimensions of Open Government

This section captures how each OGP member can play a leadership role, based on IRM-based findings and third-party scores. This list does not cover all of open government and OGP members are not required to take any action.

Action implications

These are recommendations on the role that each OGP member might play in each policy area. The recommendations are derived from a combination of the IRM-based findings and third-party scores.

IRM-based findings

Reflect the performance of commitments in a particular policy area, as assessed by the IRM.

 

(NC) No Commitments
(CA) Commitment(s) in the policy area.
(IR) IRM-Reviewed: At least one IRM-assessed commitment.
(C) Was Complete: At least one commitment was substantially or fully completed.
(A) Was Ambitious: At least one commitment with moderate or transformative potential impact.
(ER) Showed Early Results: At least one commitment opened government in a “Major” or “Outstanding” way.

Third-party scores

Reflect “real-world” performance, i.e., performance outside of the OGP framework. Scores are comprised of various indicators collected by respected organizations.
