Experts from the World Wide Web Foundation, the Governments of France and Taiwan, Luminate, and Article 19 led a cross-sector conversation to unpack the policy measures related to use of digital platforms in times of crisis response and policy considerations important for longer term reform.

In times of crisis more than ever, ensuring wide, efficient and timely access to public services by those who need them most becomes a key priority. As the pandemic spreads over the globe and governments strive to ensure adequate healthcare to their citizens, developing collaborative, multi-stakeholder frameworks turns into a response to address urgent needs as well as an opportunity to build trust in public institutions.

OGP, the Open Data Charter, and Access Info address challenges that governments have faced when trying to promote transparency during crisis response and draw attention to the current data needs from citizens and civil society.

Join the OGP community for virtual conversations about open government responses to the coronavirus pandemic and how to move towards open and effective recovery efforts.

Countries around the world are facing unprecedented challenges from COVID-19, and the need for openness, transparency, inclusion and accountability have rarely been greater.
