Participatory, Collaborative, Results Focused
Open Development Approach
• Transparency
-- “any attempts (by states or citizens) to place information or processes that were previously opaque in the public domain, accessible for use by citizen groups, providers or policy makers.” (Joshi, 2010, p.3)
- Availability, accessibility, usability
- For some fact, information, or process to be transparent is for it to be open and available for examination and scrutiny.
• Accountability
- Answerability of government to the public on its performance
- Making public sector staff more accountable for their decisions and actions.
Transparency and accountability
Transparency does not always lead to accountability
Transparency but no Accountability
• Accountability depends on
– Degree of political will
– Degree of pressure on government (national as well as international)-who are they answerable to?)
– Civil society and media capability
– Presence of free media
– None of these are ICT issues
Factors necessary for
Accountability

quality of services provided
Where in the project cycle
do we collect feedback?
