This title is a collection of case studies from Africa on social accountability. This title attempts to build a consolidated body of knowledge on social accountability efforts across the continent. The case studies are diverse and present unique approaches to how social accountability strategies and interventions are implemented within different countries. The title is written by practitioners, for practitioners, providing first-hand experience of designing and implementing social accountability initiatives and the challenges, methods and successes each one presents. While most research focuses on the role of citizens and civil society organisations in promoting accountability, this title places a greater emphasis on joint state-civil society initiatives. While social accountability initiatives are known mostly only in their own countries, and few African campaigns are documented, this title fills this gap by covering different approaches within a wide array of African countries. To overcome language and cultural barriers that have prevented practitioners in the African sub-regions from learning from each other, this title will be translated into French and disseminated widely in Francophone Africa. The Affiliated Network for Social Accountability in Africa (ANSA-Africa) supports the engagement of citizens and civil society in building more effective states through social accountability approaches.
