g0v.tw 作為一個推動資訊透明化的線上社群，從 2012 年底開始成形，致力於開發公民參與社會的資訊平台和工具，將 gov 以「零」替代成為 g0v，期許數位原生世代自 0 與 1 世界的視野，從零重新思考政府扮演的角色。2014 年底台灣歷經了大型公民運動的洗禮，g0v.tw社群首度舉辦零時政府高峰會（g0v Summit），進行開放社群、政府、非政府組織、學術界、資訊技術領域的多方交流，成果全部以開源軟體的模式釋出，希望能透過資訊的透明化，來幫助公民更確實了解政府的運作情形、討論及分析公共議題，進而有效地監督政府組織，深化民主之行動。
　　Formed at the end of 2012, g0v.tw is an online community that advocates transparency of information. It focuses on developing an information platform and tool for civic participation. Substituting the "o" with "0" in gov,the new "g0v" hopes that the generation of digital natives who sees the world in zeros and ones will start rethinking the role of the government from point zero. At the end of 2014, Taiwan experienced an awakening through a large-scale civic movement and g0v.tw held the g0v Summit for the first time to open up multilateral exchange between open communities, government and non-government organizations, academia and IT industry, and provide the results of collaboration as based on the way of open source. It is hoped that information transparency will help citizens better understand government operations, discuss and analyze public issues, thus achieving effective monitoring of the government and deepening the democracy movement.
