Fighting Corruption Alone: Civic Participation in OGP Anti-Corruption Commitments

The paper found that 17% of all OGP commitments address anti-corruption themes and analyzed whether those tend to be more starred, more delivered, and more ambitious than other OGP commitments. The researchers coded all anti-corruption commitments looking for mentions to civil society actors, coding as “civil society participation included” any explicit mention to citizens, CSOs, individuals, general public, or other references to civil society.
