Currently, the government ofUkraineis implementing the initiativeOpen Government Partnership (OGP), after joining it in September 2011along with 54 other participating countries.

To increase public service transparency the Ukrainian government will also introduce the National Center for Utility Payments Management, as well as a united web portal for public services by the end of 2012.
