White House Summit on Global Development -- July 20, 2016

In recent years, there has been substantial progress in promoting accountability and transparency as a means for achieving progress on development across all sectors, greater democratic governance, deeper civil society-government engagement, and improved foreign assistance delivery. This session served as an opportunity to reflect on how the United States works through and helps lead multi-stakeholder platforms, including the Open Government Partnership, to generate results at the local level, promote access to justice, and strengthen government accountability.
