Global Integrity is an innovation lab that produces high-quality research and creates cutting-edge technology to advance the work of a global network of civic, public, and private reformers pursuing increased transparency and accountability in governments. In addition to our core team, we collaborate with a global network of more than 1,300 in-country contributors and partners who take our technologies, tools, and information to where they are most useful – the local level. There are individuals and groups in every country – across the civic, public, and private sectors – working towards transparency reforms. Quite often, these groups lack common data and standards, collaboration tools, and the ability to share their information – even in the same country. Giving those groups common tools, shared research methods, and access to their colleagues propels them more quickly towards advances in transparency and accountability.
We believe that there is not enough willingness to test, fail, and learn in the transparency community. And we seek to fill that void. We prioritize learning and innovation, and so we take on new approaches in our field simply to test, learn, and improve.
