🌍 A defining moment for democracy — and for open government.
At the 2025 #OGPSummit in Vitoria-Gasteiz, 2,000+ reformers from 70+ countries came together to push for bold, inclusive reforms that deliver resilient, fair, and accountable societies.
The #OGPSummit was a powerful few days! It was energizing to connect with so many people working to open up governance. A special highlight? Seeing members of our #NextGenDIY network in action, bringing fresh ideas & showing what the future of democratic leadership looks like.

At the #OGPSummit today, I went to a good panel on how to maintain independence & viability of media. Some keys mentioned were: explicit safeguards for editorial independence for public media, media literacy education & a need to build public support for independent media.
If nations, states, & cities refuse to uphold @opengovpartnership.org values, enforce illiberal policies, & engage in overt authoritarianism & brazen corruption, tthey must not be allowed to remain in governance of multilateral organizations explicitly focused on fighting those plagues.
