The fourth action plan brings several lessons since it was developed during the pandemic and in an environment of polarization between the government and civil society. The plan achieved early results in nine of the thirteen commitments, four of them with significant or exceptional achievements. There is evidence of an increase in spaces for citizen participation and improvements in transparency and access to information, as well as more actionable dialogues between civil society and the government. There are still areas for improvement for a fifth plan, such as giving greater specificity and attention to citizen participation mechanisms, incorporating the accountability component in future commitments, and strengthening dialogue and trust between civil society and the government.

In this Voices of Open Government episode, we learn how reformers in Mexico are designing a national policy to reduce the gender inequality gap and position the right to care in the public agenda.
Mexico has conducted a pilot project that highlights the shortcomings of the public care system and how the burden of making up for them falls disproportionately on women. By listening to those most affected, concrete solutions and public policy recommendations are offered to improve care and alleviate gender inequality.

The following data is updated periodically, most often after large numbers of new action plans and IRM reports.
Commitment Performance
The following variables answer the question “Did this commitment open government?“, and focus on how government practices have changed as a result of the commitment’s implementation.
Starred commitments in OGP are one of the ways the IRM designates promising reforms. The graph below shows where the major areas for improvement in action plan design and implementation should take place based on past action plans.

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.
As leaders, these members may consider playing a peer-support role by sharing their experiences and innovations with others in OGP, if they are not already doing so.
These are members making OGP commitments to improve their performance in the respective policy area. As members that have demonstrated political commitment through OGP, the next step is ensuring that implemented commitments have maximal impact.
These members have room for improvement in the respective policy area according to the third-party score and have not leveraged their OGP action plans to address the issue. They may consider reforms in the respective policy area, either within or outside of the OGP framework.
These members have not made ambitious OGP commitments or commitments that have shown early results. However, these members have recently made commitment(s) in the respective policy area that have not yet been assessed by the IRM. The OGP community will monitor these commitments and soon report on the progress achieved.
There is not enough third-party data available to identify an action implication.
