MonitLegis
MonitLegis is a digital observatory run by the Observatório Social do Brasil, which brings together numerous local and regional organizations throughout the country. This monitor is specifically designed to facilitate the transparency of expenses and activities carried out with the budget of the municipal councilors in each city. The monitor aggregates data provided by local and regional observatories, allowing comparisons across different mandates, cities, regions, and representatives. It also allows users to monitor the legislative activity of councilors and their expenses for employees, travel, etc.
