on track ict- enabled citizen feedback loops
DESCRIPTION
OnTrack is an ICT-enabled Citizen Feedback Mechanisms which enables citizens and civil society to directly provide feedback to Government implementing agencies and public service providers of World Bank-financed programs. On Track uses a multi-mode approach to collecting citizen feedback by using innovations in technology (i.e. inter-active Mapping, SMS, mobile and web) embedded into a broader process of civic engagement and participatory monitoring of development outcomes.TRANSCRIPT

Participatory, Collaborative, Results Focused
Open Development Approach

• Transparency
-- “any attempts (by states or citizens) to place information or processes that were previously opaque in the public domain, accessible for use by citizen groups, providers or policy makers.” (Joshi, 2010, p.3)
- Availability, accessibility, usability
- For some fact, information, or process to be transparent is for it to be open and available for examination and scrutiny.
• Accountability
- Answerability of government to the public on its performance
- Making public sector staff more accountable for their decisions and actions.
Transparency and accountability
Transparency does not always lead to accountability
![Page 4: On Track ICT- Enabled Citizen Feedback loops](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051314/554da6f8b4c905fa7a8b4a8f/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Transparency but no Accountability
• Accountability depends on
– Degree of political will
– Degree of pressure on government (national as well as international)-who are they answerable to?)
– Civil society and media capability
– Presence of free media
– None of these are ICT issues
Factors necessary for
Accountability
