Leveraging the Open Government Partnership to Promote Information Integrity and Media Freedom

Founded in 2011, the OGP brings government reformers and civil society organizations together, effectively allowing governments to elaborate and implement ambitious reforms. Recognising the importance of media freedom and information integrity to achieve some of its goals (ie. fighting corruption, access to information, etc.), the OGP has launched a ‘challenge’ on the issue calling member States to improve their public policies. Recognising the importance of leveraging this opportunity, the Forum on Information and Democracy is teaming up with the OGP to discuss how to concretely bridge the two agendas.

Join to learn more about:  
- The OGP unique process to move from setting principles to implementation 
- How we can leverage this process to implement reforms on media freedom and information integrity 
- The first examples and good practices from Morocco, Armenia and the UK. 

This Monday 10th at 3pm CET, you will notably hear from:  
Robin Mansell, Scientific Director of the Observatory on Information and Democracy 
Jordan Ogg, International Policy Manager, Ofcom 
Shushan Doydoyan, President, Freedom of Information Center of Armenia Amadjar Mustapha, Director of Communication and Public Relations, Ministry of Youth, Culture and Communication, Morocco 
Alessandro Bellantoni, Director, Policy and Partnerships, Open Government Partnership 
Camille Grenier, Executive Director of the Forum on Information and Democracy 

The second workshop will take place on Friday 28 March from 11am to 12:30pm.
