CIG Engages in Hague World Justice Forum Discussions to Improve the Rule of Law and Good Governance

THE HAGUE (NETHERLANDS), 3 JUNE 2022 — The Chandler Institute of Governance (CIG) attended the World Justice Forum this week.

CIG’s Executive Director Wu Wei Neng spoke at the panel on Corruption Measurement as an Agent of Change as part of the World Justice Forum’s working session on anti-corruption and open government. He highlighted the value of measuring the capabilities of anti-corruption and integrity institutions, as part of a broader assessment of governance quality. The panel also explored how governments can use perception and experience-based indicators to complement quantitative indicators in order to identify opportunities for positive change. The Chandler Good Government Index (CGGI) offers a data-driven approach for governments to benchmark progress and enhance capabilities.

The CIG team also showcased its work as an exhibitor at the Justice Expo, including the CGGI Report, the Governance Matters Magazine, and its collaborative projects with governments to enhance capability development.

During the Forum, CIG met with leaders, experts and social impact organisations to discuss the rule of law and its close link to good governance, the sharing of good practices in the public sector capabilities sphere, as well as potential areas for collaboration.

CIG and organisers of the World Justice Forum also shared updates on both parties’ projects and partnerships, and discussed ways to refine the methodologies of the World Justice Project’s Rule of Law Index and the Chandler Good Government Index to better measure government performances and outcomes.
