The Inter-American Observatory on Public Governance and Innovation (OIGIP) is a joint research initiative among the OAS School of Governance (SoG), the Instituto Universitario Ortega-Maranõn (IUIOG), and Universidad Rey Juan Carlos III (URJC).

The initiative is inspired by similar mechanisms carried out in the US, Europe and Latin-America, such as the OECD Observatory for Public Sector Innovation, the Center for Public Impact at Boston Consulting Group Foundation - CPI and the Inter-American Network of Education in Public Administration - INPAE
