RTIwiki has been started to trace and document the activities, action and progress underway in India and across the globe to improve transparency, fight corruption, ensure fundamental rights for the Citizens, ensure eqatable growth and improve living conditions. This RTIwiki has been created so that history of RTI and the fight against corruption is written by people who are directly involved in the action. The Right to Information Act 2005 provides all citizens with a potent tool (and a weapon) to fight corruption and bring in an era of accountability.

The efforts and push for this Wiki initiation by Coalition for Social Engineering, Resurgence India, People for Transparency and Burning Brain Society must also be referred here. This project by Citizens' Voice is a result of long debates, discussions and brain-stroming by the core-group of activists belonging to these organisations.

Citizens' Voice is a non-profit charitable trust created solely for the purpose to work and facilitate working and action for civil rights, as promised under the Constitution of India and as availaable to people across the world. Ensuring transparency and challenging corruption is one of the major focus areas of Citizens' Voice. The present project has been initiated with an objective to broadbase the fragmanted efforts on Right to Information.
