Social Accountability Sample Clauses

Social Accountability. ESAP2 and thus its grant scheme focuses on Social Accountability (SA). SA is an approach in which citizens collectively demand for better public basic services from service providers, and hold service providers accountable for their performance. SA is used as a mechanism to inform and educate citizens of their constitutional rights, and responsibilities. It is also used as a means to inform citizens about their public basic service entitlements and service standards and engage communities with public officials and service providers to demand more and better quality public basic services. SA is thus a principle of good governance that relies on citizens’ engagement. ESAP2 seeks to build this engagement by using a range of instruments and tools, such as participatory budgeting, monitoring of public service delivery, and citizens’ report cards.
