Sunshine Week is a national initiative to open dialogue about open government and freedom of information.

Anyone interested in the public's right to know can be a part of Sunshine Week. Students, teachers, private citizens, librarians, civic leaders, public officials, bloggers, non-profit groups are involved.

The only requirement is that you do something to engage in a discussion about the importance of open government. It could be a large public forum or a classroom discussion, an article or series of articles about access to important information, or an editorial. The extent to which you participate is up to you.
