The OGP Support Unit, with oversight from the Governance and Leadership subcommittee, administers the selection process for new Steering Committee members. For the purposes of selecting new members of the Steering Committee, OGP is composed of two constituencies: Government and Civil Society. Separate selection processes are held and members from each constituency have the opportunity to select their own representatives.
There are three government seats in the OGP Steering Committee up for election in 2025, as current terms of Chile, Germany and Indonesia come to an end. Of these, Chile is eligible to run for a second term. Germany and Indonesia will rotate out of the Steering Committee after serving the maximum two consecutive terms allowed. The deadline to submit candidacy letters is June 7.
