Subject: [ogp] Share Your Experience with Private Sector Partnerships on
Open Governance
To: OGP Civil Society group <ogp at dgroups.org>


 Dear all, I am sharing this call for cases – as it appears on OGP blog -
since a number of you are working with the private sector. The Private
Sector Council would be grateful for your help in getting the word out
about this study. I would also be glad to discuss ways in which the private
sector can work together with civil society.



Best regards,

Kim Bettcher

Secretariat of the Private Sector Council on Open Governance (co-chaired by
the Center for International Private Enterprise)





The Private Sector Council on Open Governance is seeking examples
<https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/R9F3XZP> of corporate or business-oriented
programs to promote better governance in countries and communities around
the world. For instance:



   - Microsoft has held open data hackathons to develop applications for
   disaster reduction and recovery, in cooperation with the Government of the
   Philippines and the World Bank.
   - The Makati Business Club has established a Coalition Against
   Corruption to support projects in procurement reform and delivery of public
   services, in cooperation with academe, the business sector, civil society
   organizations, and the Church.
   - The Thomson Reuters Foundation ranked the transport systems in terms
   of safety for women in 16 major cities. In each city, it surveyed women and
   experts focused on women’s rights, gender equality, urban planning and
   gender-friendly urban spaces.



To submit your examples to the Private Sector Council, please complete the
questionnaire <https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/R9F3XZP> by August 31. Your
examples will help to map and communicate private sector roles in
governance partnerships and better align governance programming with
existing private sector strengths. Our aim is not to raise funding for
partnerships but to identify and share effective practices. We will share
the results of the survey at the 2015 OGP Global Summit in Mexico City,
Mexico.



The Private Sector Council was established in 2013 to engage diverse
businesses and entrepreneurs in promoting open governance, economic growth,
and local innovations. The Council coordinates private sector participation
in the Open Government Partnership <http://www.opengovpartnership.org/>: a
65-country alliance of governments, civil society, and other stakeholders
to promote transparency, accountability, and civic participation within
member countries.



What we are looking for:



The Council invites examples from any of the 65 participating countries of
the Open Government Partnership <http://www.opengovpartnership.org/> of
initiatives that promote the core values of the partnership:



   - Transparency: of government-held information; mechanisms to strengthen
   open access to government information.
   - Accountability: rules and mechanisms for government actors to justify
   their actions and performance; act upon criticisms or commitments.
   - Participation: citizens engage in dialogue on government policies or
   programs; provide input or feedback leading to more responsive, effective
   governance.
   - Technology and Innovation: open access to technology; increasing the
   capacity of citizens to use technology.



In particular, private sector programs and partnerships that apply these
values to address the following social challenges are welcomed:



   1. Improving Public Services—measures that address the full spectrum of
   citizen services including health, education, criminal justice, water,
   electricity, telecommunications, and any other relevant service areas by
   fostering public service improvement or private sector innovation
   2. Increasing Public Integrity—measures that address corruption and
   public ethics, access to information, campaign finance reform, and media
   and civil society freedom
   3. More Effectively Managing Public Resources—measures that address
   budgets, procurement, natural resources, and foreign assistance
   4. Creating Safer Communities—measures that address public safety, the
   security sector, disaster and crisis response, and environmental threats
   5. Increasing Corporate Accountability—measures that address corporate
   responsibility on issues such as the environment, anti-corruption, consumer
   protection, and community engagement



We are interested to hear about actual projects and services; consultative
processes that engage business and other stakeholders; and principles-based
initiatives. Examples from national OGP programs and independent
initiatives are both welcome.



We will be grateful to receive your completed questionnaire
<https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/R9F3XZP> by August 31.
