The openness measurement of local self-government units for 2025, through the Openness Index, has begun

The Metamorphosis Foundation in partnership with the Rural Coalition has begun the implementation of this year’s measurement of openness of local self-government units in the Republic of North Macedonia.

The measurement of openness for all 81 local self-government units will be conducted using the Openness Index, a composite indicator that gauges the degree of institutional openness to citizens and society. It was created to assess how effectively institutions provide citizens with clear and accessible information.

To measure the degree of openness in local self-government, monitoring through the Openness Index is conducted in accordance with legal regulations, international standards, recommendations, and best practices. This evaluation is based on specific quantitative and qualitative indicators, including access to information on official websites, published data on institutional operations, public procurement, and the spending of public funds, among others.

Upon completing the openness measurement of local government units, and based on the analyzed data, the Metamorphosis Foundation will prepare a public policy document that will be shared with local government and the public, in order to help promote the openness of local government to citizens.

Additional information on the latest measurement of openness in local government units can be found in the publication Assessment of Good Governance in Local Self-Government Units in the Republic of North Macedonia Using the Openness Index.

This activity is part of the project (DIGILOC) Digital transformation at local level – Engaged community for corruption resilience supported by the Government of Switzerland through Civica Mobilitas. Partners in the project are Metamorphosis Foundation for Internet and Society, Rural Coalition, and Center for Social Innovations Blink 42-21.
