Information for good governance and accountability
The International Records Mangement Trust Ghost Busting Video
The International Records Management Trust is now in its 21st year of helping governments introduce new strategies for managing public sector records.
Information and communications technology alone does not offer a complete solution to information management problems. If computerisation is to provide the basis for informed decision making, greater transparency and effective service delivery, the information generated or held must be reliable and trustworthy over time. Well managed records, paper and electronic, document the policies, transactions and activities of governments and provide a trusted source of information to support accountability. They are the foundation for good governance and for meeting development goals.
The IRMT assists governments and organisations in moving safely from a paper to an electronic environment through building reliable, trustworthy records systems as the basis for data integrity to support:
  • Financial management
  • Human resource management
  • Land administration
  • Health care management
  • Justice and courts administration
  • Services for citizens
  • Anti-corruption strategies
  • Access to information
  • Protection of rights and entitlements
  • Management information systems
