The Big Accountability Project

A public accountability initiative documenting where humanitarian commitments have been kept or broken by governments, corporations, and institutions. Data, dashboards, and journalist tools.

About this project

The Big Accountability Project builds and maintains a public database of humanitarian commitments — from climate pledges to human rights treaties — and tracks whether the entities that made them are keeping their word.

Journalists, researchers, and community organizers get free access to dashboards, downloadable datasets, and a searchable commitment ledger.
