Accountability in Public Affairs (APA)

Accountability in Public Affairs (APA) refers to the responsibility government officials, agencies, and public institutions have to be transparent and answerable for their actions and decisions. It ensures that public resources are managed properly, policies serve the community’s best interests, and leaders can be held responsible if they fail to meet these standards. Essentially, APA fosters trust by enabling citizens to scrutinize and verify that public officials act ethically, efficiently, and in accordance with laws and policies, thereby promoting good governance and serving the public good.
