Abstract

This article aims to analyze the level of transparency in the Municipality of Sopó during the period 2016 - 2019, where public institutions at the territorial level have acquired the challenge of promoting and encouraging high levels of governance, however, this has been a process that has faced various challenges in the absence of transparency lagging behind previous administrations. Transparency and good governance have acquired a fundamental role in public management, which has prompted various state institutions to include these issues in their agendas. In this context, the Mayor's Office of Sopó, during the 2016-2019 period, has shown significant progress compared to administrations, promoting citizen participation, accessibility to information and the implementation of transparency strategies. The purpose of this article is to analyze the level of transparency in the municipal administration during that period, identifying its progress and challenges. This article examines management reports, open government tools and initiatives implemented, such as the transparency pact. It identifies achievements, as well as areas where challenges remain, such as the need to improve the accessibility of information for populations with specific requirements and the online management of documents. The study highlights that, although traditionally analyses on corruption and transparency have focused on national spheres of public power, it emphasizes the importance of evaluating these processes at the territorial level, where it is evident that the municipal administration has implemented strategies that have improved citizen trust and strengthened local governance, serving as a reference for other municipalities seeking to optimize their management in terms of transparency and the fight against corruption.
