RESPONSIBLE GOVERNANCE – AT THE HEART OF EVERYTHING
Responsible Governance is the foundation of a thriving democracy and a more prosperous future. The tenets of good governance: Accountability, Transparency, Integrity, Equality, Participation, and Rule of Law permeate society and affect everything from education quality to economic opportunity, crime levels to ease of doing business.
The Organization for Responsible Governance (ORG) is a not-for-profit civic foundation committed to realizing a brighter future by creating dialogue, insights, and solutions around the challenges affecting accountable governance, education reform, and economic development in The Bahamas. We are businesspersons, students, artists, educators, politicians, clergy, academics, and members of civil society united to resolve the nation’s most vexing issues by addressing their root causes. Through research, advocacy, and education we can create a culture of governance that promotes opportunity and prosperity for all.
OUR VISION
A thriving Bahamas where accountable and transparent governance allows each individual, business, and group a say in decisions that affect our future and equal access to opportunity.
OUR MISSION
To identify core challenges affecting The Bahamas and be a catalyst for the development of actionable solutions. Through collaborative efforts with individuals, civil society, as well as international organizations, ORG will engage citizens, corporations, politicians and the Government to create positive, sustainable solutions to vexing problems.
