Interview with Livia Sobota, National Secretary for Transparency and Access to Information at the Office of the Comptroller General of Brazil (CGU), conducted by Dr. Fernanda Campagnucci, Director of InternetLab and Special Editor of the Revista da CGU. The interview addresses six central issues related to open government: the strategic role of transparency in the current structure of Brazilian public administration; the evolution, maturity, and challenges of Brazil’s open data agenda; the transformations brought about by the Open Government Partnership (OGP); the reinterpretation of OGP principles over time; the legacies and challenges of Brazil’s 2025–2026 OGP co‑chairmanship; and the role of technology in open government, including principles to mitigate digital risks.
