Guatemala has launched the “Guatemala Does Not Stop” initiative to strengthen digital rights and government transparency. A key component, “Info Segura,” aims to secure public information and bolster cybersecurity. This effort involves the Presidential Commission for Open Government, the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), and civil society organizations, focusing on protecting citizens’ data while promoting safe digital access. The initiative underscores the urgent need to safeguard personal information against escalating cyber threats. By establishing technical working groups, the government seeks to balance data protection with public accessibility. This reflects a broader regional shift toward responsible digital governance. This is relevant to open data as it highlights the critical intersection of transparency and security. Genuine openness requires robust frameworks that protect user privacy while sharing public information. Without such safeguards, public trust in digital government services may erode, hindering effective civic engagement.
