Global Transparency Initiative

The Global Transparency Initiative (GTI) is a network of civil society organisations promoting openness in the International Financial Institutions (IFIs), such as the World Bank, the IMF, the European Investment Bank and Regional Development Banks. The GTI brings together two communities of activists and experts from around the world – one, those groups campaigning for full accountability in the use of public power vested in the IFIs; the other, groups that have been campaigning for the right to access to information at the nation-state level. We developed GTI’s website using ActionApps dynamic content and content sharing technology. The finished site includes a calendar and extensive database of resources and organisations.

Graphic design for webpages was provided by Sarka Vasku.
