Monitoring Municipalities on the Law of Access to public information
The Monitoring of Municipalities on the Law on Access to Public Information had the objective of measuring the degree of progress in the implementation of this law, as well as obtaining information from different municipalities regarding budgets, projects, works and personnel. A guide was developed with questions related to the Law on Access to Information and its application, and citizens requested, in person, public information in different municipalities.
