In citizen-led accountability initiatives, we understand much more about how citizens mobilise around accountability demands than we do about what leads state agents to respond to them. This report highlights some key themes that are important in exploring the state side of the accountability equation.

  • What makes government actors that are targeted by accountability demands change their behaviour?
  • What are the critical ingredients for supporting the development of champions of transparency and accountability within government institutions?
