Transparency at the Olympic Games, Rio 2016 Ethos Institute is adapting the transparency indicators applied in the World Cup 2014 to the Olympic and Paralympic Games in Rio, 2016. They will assess the institutions involved with the Games (Olympic Public Authority - APO, Municipal Olympic Company - EOM, Government of State of Rio de Janeiro, 2016) to measure the transparency of these institutions. The indicators will be applied between January and February 2015, with the release of the results in March 2015. In addition, they are promoting the Transparency Roundtable, a space where CSOs meet with members of the 2016 Rio Organizing Committee - responsible for coordinating sports activities of the Olympics - and Ethos Institute to discuss the transparency of the Olympic Games. The first meeting was held in October 2014. In total six thematic roundtables will be created to help Rio 2016 to meet the commitments set out in the Olympic Games sustainability reports. Civil society institutions, with the support of Rio 2016, will lead the roundtables. Ethos Institute will lead the transparency debate.
