Dialogo Diverso: Achieving a Gender Perspective in Ecuador

December 21, 2023

In Ecuador, Counterpart’s New Partnerships in Open Government program aims to enhance transparency, accountability, and citizen participation in governance by strengthening civil society, government, academia, and the private sector through the implementation of open government models. In Quito, we recently met with our partner, Dialogo Diverso, who are doing fantastic work around gender and social inclusion as a critical part of fostering a culture of open government. The video below showcases a recent training conducted by Dialogo Diverso around gender and the Open Government Partnership process and featuring members of our team.
