Zoe Reiter
Transparency International Secretariat
Senior Project Leader
United States
Title proposal: Public procurement is the juiciest corruption pot, open data can show this, but how do we get people to care?
Biography: Since 2008, Zoe has worked at Transparency International with partners and Chapters across three regions to ensure strong public accountability. Currently, she is responsible for three international initiatives related to open governance: working with over 30 CSO and government partners across the European Union to
promote clean contracting ; fostering civil society oversight of security and justice institutions along the
Cocaine Route in Latin America and West Africa (with UNODC and TI chapters in Latin America and Africa); and piloting an approach to safe and efficient
public transportation in Guatemala with
Accion Ciudadana and the Guatemalan Human Rights Ombudsman. In particular, Zoe pursues a vision of open government that can better contribute to inclusive, responsive governance and equality.
