Transparência Brasil is a non-profit civil society organization, founded in 2000 by journalists, businessmen and activists concerned about corruption and lack of transparency of Brazilian government. Our mission is to promote public integrity by increasing available information on public institutions. One of the country’s most trusted sources of information on transparency and open data, Transparência Brasil has a long history of fighting corruption, culminating in the approval of both the Clean Slate Law (2010) and the Freedom of Information Law (2011). More recently, we are working very closely with social monitoring experiments in the field of education. We won the Google Impact Challenge in 2016 and the Prize Transparency and Public Monitoring (Transparência e Fiscalização Pública) from the Brazilian Federal Lower Chamber in 2019.
