Feminist open government in Latin America : lessons from Mexico, Costa Rica and Uruguay

Abstract

Inclusion and gender equality are priorities of the Open Government Partnership (OGP). “Feminist Open Government” (FOGO) supports initiatives that seek to eliminate barriers and support inclusion of all persons through transparency, participation, and accountability. The Latin American Initiative for Open Data (ILDA) analyzes how women are (or are not) involved in OGP processes in three Latin American countries: Mexico, Costa Rica, and Uruguay. The report identifies barriers as well as activities which may enrich OGP processes in terms of inclusion from a feminist perspective.
