- 11. Content Good ideas for commitments
- 12. When designing commitments Be Ambitious What is transformative, has real impact, and is achievable? Think of open government as a toolbox How can open government solve public policy problems, improve services, and have real impact for citizens? How can tools of transparency, accountability, or participation help? Learn from others How have other countries tackled similar problems? Be creative What are new national, regional, and global problems that need to be addressed? SDGs? Sub-national reforms? Bundled commitments?

Notes de l'éditeur
- From Shreya – make sure to add that commitments have been getting more specific as demonstrated by increase in milestones and decrease in the raw number of commitments.
- Recommended that it is: Is co-designed by government and civil society; Has a formal structure (not necessarily by law; context specific); Has clearly defined roles and responsibilities (including documentation of forum’s activities, accountability mechanisms, etc.); Has clear rules on who participates as well as selection and rotation (if applicable) of members; CS chooses its own reps, using its logic/structure for selection and reporting back to the wider community Thinking about other actors that need to be in the dialogue Ideally is co-managed or co- governed by government and civil society; and Meets regularly (at least once every two months). COLLABORATION DURING IMPLEMENTATION
- Additional notes: Sierra Leone, At first, the government invited only 10 CSO, but civil society leaders pushed to reach other stakeholders. Today, the Steering Committee has 17 representatives of government and 17 representatives from civil society. An important aspect to the process was the willingness of government to forego its tendency to micromanage the consultation process without eroding its leadership. The MF closely follows the NAP, establishing leads for specific commitment clusters, as a means to make monitoring of their implementation more effective. In this case, the chair is a member of civil society. There is a support group, under the Open Government Initiative Coordinating Team within the Office of the President, which provides legal and logistical service and performance information. In addition, the civil society representatives have established an independent monitoring mechanism that assesses the results achieved in implementation of the NAP. Frequency of meetings: Monthly. Consultations: At the start of the process for drafting the NAP, sensitization regarding the OGP was carried out in 12 districts, Western Area (rural and urban) and in the Diaspora (Belgium, U.S. and U.K.). The process stated with sensitization before consultation, an approach that became an innovation in the OGP process. Afterward, a nationwide consultation was held in all 14 districts. Monitoring and accountability: Sierra Leone has established a dual model for monitoring the implementation of the NAP: • General Forum: A national Steering Committee as a permanent forum having monthly meetings and ad hoc sessions as needed. • Smaller Forum: Cluster hubs to monitor, accelerate and discuss progress on bigger challenges and commitments. These are broken down in line with the four grand challenges (clusters) and commitments. Coordination with external stakeholder - Civil society and government established leads for each of the NAP commitments, who are responsible to provide information about progress in the implementation of the NAP. Georgia: the Open Government Forum. The Ministry of Justice created it, and it has representatives from civil society, government and international organizations. It can call external experts to participate in the discussions. The OGF is chaired by two speakers, one from government and one from civil society. They are elected by a majority of votes and remain in that position during implementation of the NAP. The Forum Secretariat is in charge of convening meetings, defining the agenda, preparing the meeting’s minutes and preparing reports of the activities twice a year. Regular meetings are held quarterly. Forum rules state that the meeting calendars must be drafted and published online, that members have to be notified about the meeting’s agenda via email, and that the minutes should be posted at the Forum’s Web page. Other examples: Mexico (Mexico Tripartite Technical Secretariat – One seat for CS, selected by CS on a rotating basis from the CS network + issue roundtables during consultation, including experts in the area), U.S. (working groups) In Mongolia, as this is being set up during a year of transition, would be good to manage for risks (assess likelihood and impact) – documentation, succession plan, rotation policy, induction materials, agreement for ongoing dialogue. CSOs and bureaucrats key to sustainability.
