Title: La transparencia como objetivo del desarrollo sostenible Abstract: The present work has the purpose to specify the meaning of the transparency in the public management as a requirement of ethical character related to the information that the agents must give in the field of their functions, recognizing him as the owner of the information that produce and save. The transparency has a special value as a tool to combat the corruption and, in that way, contributes to achieve inclusive and effective institutions for the sustainable development as established in the target 16 of the Global Agenda for the Sustainable Development. The development of the work will require the concepts of transparency, access to information, and open government that, from the use of information and communication technology, opens the Government processes and allows the access of the public to the information. It concludes that the transparency in the public management is first and foremost a political decision mediatized by procedures that ensure the access to the information for citizen control and, thereby, give sense to democratic systems.
