The Open Government Directive is an effort to implement the three principles of transparency, participation, and collaboration that form the cornerstone of an open government.
Transparency promotes accountability by providing the public with information about what the government is doing.
Participation allows members of the public to contribute ideas and expertise so that their government can make policies with the benefit of information that is widely dispersed in society.
Collaboration improves the effectiveness of government by encouraging partnerships and cooperation within the federal government, across levels of government, and between the government and private institutions.
The Department of Homeland Security's Open Government Plan (PDF, 45 pages - 368 KB) encapsulates Secretary Napolitano's vision for making the Department stronger and shrinking the separation between government and citizens through modern technologies, traditional communication channels, and long-term and developing innovations.
The Department of Homeland Security appreciates all of the ideas and suggestions submitted throughout the Open Government dialogue period. The public input we received will inform the Department-wide Open Government Plan-a preliminary draft published here in April 2010. You may subscribe to receive an alert when the plan is available online. Input from the online participation tool has been archived for transparency purposes.
