Abstract: Transparency and open government are closely linked to each other and both are essential ingredients that have the potential for transforming a society. More and more citizens are expecting accountability and openness from their governments. As they look for ways to actively participate in creating policies that improve their lives, new forms or methods of participation arise. Considering that last year Romania celebrated 10 years since its intention to take part in the international Open Government Partnership (OGP) initiative, the purpose of this paper is to reveal some of the lessons learnt from the National Action Plans adopted until now. Particular emphasis is placed on the commitments related to the principle of transparency and its significant role in fostering accountability and legitimacy in order to create more trusted institutions and provide meaningful public knowledge.
