Promoting Transparency and Accountability

 

The right to access information is an essential part of open government. It enables citizens to participate more fully in public life, it helps combat corruption and protect citizens' rights, it supports scientific research, and it stimulates trade and the economy. 

 

With the support of the Middle East Partnership Initiative, the OECD assists Lebanon, Morocco and Tunisia in the set-up of comprehensive access to information ecosystems:
