Foreword(s)

The commitment to the Open Government model and agenda was born in Jalisco in 2015, derived from the effort of a group of actors from the public, business, education, and civil society sectors, who focused their vision -during that time- on this new governance model. Thanks to this, the Local Technical Secretariat of Open Government in Jalisco was created, a body from which we have coordinated the work that has led us to build countless achievements; but undoubtedly, the most important for us, the synergy with which we have worked, shoulder to shoulder with the society of our entity. By 2016, our efforts took us to the international level, being part of the pilot program of subnational governments of the Open Government PartnershipThe Open Government Partnership (OGP) is a multi-stakeholder initiative focused on improving government transparency, ensuring opportunities for citizen participation in public matters, and strengthen... More; which has allowed since then, international eyes to focus on Jalisco. Currently, thanks to the will and work of all the actors involved, we have become a reference within the Open Government exercises at the national level; counting so far with two local action plans successfully concluded, where we managed to involve all the branches of government of the State, in addition to adding five municipalities of the Metropolitan Zone of Guadalajara, in the implementation of 15 commitments. Thanks to this momentum and given the experience gained through the lessons learned from the two action plans that preceded us, today we are successfully building the Third Local Action Plan for Open Government in Jalisco 2021 – 2022, the result of the collaborative work of all those who have put their best efforts to make public solutions in Jalisco belong to everyone.

Open Government Challenges, Opportunities and Strategic Vision

This subsection details the Open Government Strategic Vision in your local area that should guide the commitments for the action plan period.

What is the long-term vision for open government in your context and jurisdiction?

Over the years, society has become increasingly interested in public affairs, which has led it to have an active participation in the government agenda, which translates into a greater demand for accountability regarding the actions of those who make up public institutions. In this sense, in Jalisco we have taken on the task of recognizing and praising this social evolution, channeling it to improve institutional openness through co-creation exercises between government and society. An example of this is the presentation of the Third Local Action Plan for Open Government Jalisco 2021 – 2022 called “The Powers of the State Strengthening Institutional Openness”. With this exercise, we seek to consolidate the work we have done to date within the Open Government agenda and continue to motivate public institutions to promote tools that contribute to improving transparencyAccording to OGP’s Articles of Governance, transparency occurs when “government-held information (including on activities and decisions) is open, comprehensive, timely, freely available to the pub... More and accountability mechanisms. Through the Third Action Plan (PAL), the commitments implemented by both the Legislative Branch and the Executive Branch will be strengthened, and a new commitment will be implemented by the Judicial Branch. This work will be aligned with the Sustainable Development Goal “Peace, Justice, and Strong Institutions” of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development of the United Nations.

Local Technical Secretariat of Open Government Jalisco

What are the achievements in open government to date (for example, recent open government reforms)?

• On May 4, 2015, the General Law of Transparency, and Access to Public Information was published in the Official Gazette of the Federation, which aims to promote and disseminate the culture of transparency.

For this process, recent aspects of the national and international contexts, citizens’ opinions, and specific technical analyses on the design, implementation, and results of the 2013 edition were considered. The central purpose of the updated Ped 2013-2033 is to offer a basic guide to order the priorities of public attention, to argue based on evidence the objectives to be pursued to achieve the development and welfare of the state’s population, as well as the strategies to be followed.
• On November 14, 2022, in an ordinary session of the council of the H. The City Council of the municipality of Tlajomulco de Zúñiga Jalisco made the general declaration of the Municipality of Tlajomulco de Zúñiga Jalisco, OPEN MUNICIPALITY.
