Two scholars from the Media and Technology Institute at the Joint Center for Political and Economic Studies will release a white paper on Friday aimed at implementing the recommendations of the Knight Commission on the Information Needs of Communities in a Democracy. The paper, Government Transparency: Six Strategies for More Open and Participatory Government, outlines specific steps that community and elected officials need to take to enact the Knight Commission’s recommendation to expand government transparency, especially in local communities. The paper is one of two that will be released and discussed at a forum, which is being sponsored by the Aspen Institute Communications and Society Program and the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation.
