I need to use it for PhD thesis in the field of communication science.
Dear Gabriela,
Last year I published an article on the subject (https://doi.org/10.3390/su13158663) in the Spanish context.
In this regard, perhaps you may find useful the Spanish experience from the incorporation of the Transparency Law and the information published by Transparency International Spain (https://transparencia.org.es/en/).
For this, the methodology used has been the analysis of the contents of the web portals of the entities that receive public funds, and from this, assign transparency indexes.
I hope I have been able to contribute something to you.
Best wishes for your thesis!
Best regards,
Juan Guevara
Akbikesh,
Thank you for a wonderful answer. I have been among those working generating and publishing indicators for international governance, democracy and human rights on projects to troubleshoot each project, including working with Transparency International which Juan mentions (which does comparative rankings based on expert subjective assessments), and looking at measures for progress and regress in human rights. It is very difficult just to find the newest indicators let alone expect that the public and governments use them or are held to using them. Some of these are new to me. The RTI rating is excellent and thanks for listing it. The approach that they are following really sets the standard for breadth of coverage and enforcement. As for others you list -- check your World Bank link. I haven't been able to open it.
I hope that those viewing this list will do two things:
1) Point us to some independent public organization (not the World Bank with a specific political economic agenda) or site that already agrees to or will organize and publicize all of the indicators that are generated in the areas of governance, democracy, human rights and public accountability (as well as for sustainability/sustainable development if possible) so one can constantly keep up with new ones and can also easily find one when needed, as well as being part of keeping a data base of scores and projects that assure actual use and monitoring (and let others know what they do now to keep up with new ones); and
2) Keep trying to get these listed on major public portals like Wikipedia and help those with indicators link to those who can get indicators recognized. Wikipedia, for instance, is not very transparent or public oriented itself in allowing information on accountability indicators.

Hi, how local community can influence the policymaking process by using an indicator system can be found in this article: https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/09669582.2021.1928147
If you have any difficulty in accessing the article, please let me know with your email address. I will send it to your email then. Also I am attaching the author copy.
