4th International Right to Know Day

Right to Know Day is celebrated on 28th of September of each year. The aim of the day is to raise awareness of the right of access to government held information. (It is also the birthday of the FOI Advocates Network, which was created on 28 September 2002).

More details

If you have any ideas about what the blog could do for Right to Know Day here in the UK, post them below as a comment

The Global Transparency Initiative (GTI), a network of organisations that promote openness at the international financial institutions (IFIs: World Bank, IMF, WTO, etc.) is launching its Transparency Charter for IFIs on 17 and 19 Sept. at the World Bank IMF annual meeting in Batam/Singapore (the civil society event is in Batam). A draft is available on their website (www.ifitransparency.org) and a final draft will be available soon.
