Transparency and Good Governance-  Public institutions which operate openly and transparently and are broadly accountable to taxpayers tend to be more effective in helping developing countries to achieve their goals of economic growth and poverty reduction.

Our work in Transparency concentrates on improving access to data and evidence on how public resource utilization affects education, health, and other areas of human development. R4D seeks to help stakeholders access, analyze, and disseminate this information.

In Good Governance, we focus on working with experienced and emerging leaders in developing countries’ governments and civil society institutions to strengthen their individual and organizational capacities. R4D conducts and sponsors peer learning opportunities and training workshops focused on building technical capacity of government leaders to engage in results oriented long-term planning, policy analysis of health financing reforms and harmonization of donor funding [Projects][Products].
