citizen-led accountability

Citizen-led accountability refers to the active role that community members take in overseeing and ensuring that government officials and institutions fulfill their responsibilities honestly and effectively. It involves citizens monitoring public services, demanding transparency, and advocating for fair treatment. By voicing concerns, providing feedback, and participating in decision-making, communities hold leaders accountable, improve governance, and ensure that resources are used properly. This approach empowers individuals to be engaged partners in shaping their government and promotes greater trust, transparency, and responsiveness in public administration.
