ELLA Spotlight on Publications: Design, Adoption and Implementation of Latin American Freedom of Information Acts

ELLA is the Evidence and Lessons from Latin America programme

Abstract

This selection highlights some of the key publications on Latin American FOIAs’ critical features, the challenges and opportunities of their implementation and use, and the process for adopting them. It divides the publications into two parts: Designing and Adopting FOIAs and FOIA Implementation and Use. These resources – offering access to the Latin American experience – could be useful for countries looking to develop, adopt or strengthen their own legal framework to guarantee transparency and access to information.
