The Partnership for Transparency Fund received a grant from AusAID to implement a program that will help citizen groups pilot citizen monitoring of government programs at the local (provincial or municipal) level. Pangasinan, Abra, and Kalinga have been identified as pilot sites for the first year.

The overall outcome of the project is strengthened practitioners networks or community of practice among local citizen groups and public officials in at least two (2) regions in the Philippines.

This project is implemented by the ANSA-EAP Foundation, with Partnership for Transparency Fund and the Coalition Against Corruption. ANSA-EAP is the main partner for capacity building and knowledge-sharing.
