How has think tank transparency evolved in 2018? Growth is the outlook according to our newest report, yet there is still significant room for improvement. Read the 2018 Transparify global report to find out more: goo.gl/TvA55z
We recently came across this interesting paper from Andréanne Veillette and @claveau_f, looking at the different think tank rankings and ratings (including our own) from a philosophy of science perspective:

We're very pleased to see that @anticorruption has institutionalized a transparency policy in line with our 5-star transparency rating criteria!
Transparency International's global funding policy:
-> every funder giving more than $1,000 *must* be publicly disclosed
-> @anticorruption is walking the transparency talk

"Opaqueness about funding sources undermines the credibility of all #ThinkTanks, including those with nothing to hide."

1) Transparencia financiera: es fundamental que los think tanks sean transparentes sobre sus fuentes de financiamiento. Esto debe incluir quiénes financian, con cuánto y para qué. Recomiendo visitar @transparify y apuntar a 5 estrellas (o 4 por lo menos).

Another recommendation by @QQMendizabal: the @transparify Integrity Health Check onthinktanks.org/resources/t… #OTTConference
Disclosure of foreign sources of income matters. But, since it is simple to hide foreign funding through domestic lobbies, disclosing all funding is really what is needed. Many reputable think tanks on both sides of the aisle already do: transparify.org/5-star
The @StateDept will henceforth request think tanks that accept money from foreign governments disclose this information to the public. The purpose is simple: to promote free and open dialogue, untainted by the machinations of authoritarian regimes.
Us too, more or less. It’s worth reiterating that think tanks across the ideological spectrum have embraced funding transparency to show they stand behind they’re work, from libertarian to rather left policy shops. Some still fail to disclose their funders. What are they hiding?

En pro de mayor uso de evidencia, medios no deben citar investigadores o centros que no sean transparentes: quienes son sus líderes, sus investigadores, sus financiadores, etc. Cuantas estrellas de @transparify tienen? @canalN_ @RPPNoticias @Ojo_Publico @Cuarto_Poder
