The WJP defines open government as a government that shares information, empowers people with tools to hold the government accountable, and fosters citizen participation in public policy deliberations. The WJP Open Government Index is organized around four dimensions:

1. Publicized laws and government data 2. Right to information 3. Civic participation 4. Complaint mechanisms

The Four Dimensions of Open Government

1. Publicized laws and government data – Measures the availability and accessibility of laws and public data. 2. Right to information – measures responsiveness to requests for information, with considerations to timeliness, pertinence, and cost. 3. Civic participation – measures people's ability to gather with others, comment on government policies, sign petitions, hold peaceful demonstrations, and voice concerns about public policies. 4. Complaint mechanisms – measures practical ability of people to make complaints about public officials, and the response to such complaints

Measurement Approach

1. Perspective of the ordinary person 2. Two sources of entirely new data:

  • A general population poll (GPP): Probability sample - 1,000

respondents per country (three largest cities).

  • Qualified respondent’s questionnaires (QRQ): Completed

by in-country practitioners and academics in civil and commercial law; criminal justice; labor law; and public health. 3. Normalization, triangulation, and validation
