[okfn-discuss] Fwd: Stop Secret Contracts! Launch of new global campaign

[Theodora Middleton]

Hi all,

Today we have launched a new campaign, Stop Secret Contracts, calling for
an end to secrecy in government contracts. We believe this is a crucial
issue which goes to the heart of transparency and accountability in
government, and we're really excited to be joined by over 30 organisations
around the world, including the Sunlight Foundation, Transparency
International and Global Witness.

The website is here: http://StopSecretContracts.org/

If you would like to get more involved, get in touch with
contact at stopsecretcontracts.org

Please do share far and wide!

All the best,

Theodora
