Dimensions of Social Accountability Dana Weist, PRMPS January 25th, 2005 Note: This interactive learning module, designed by Social Impact, was commissioned by the World Bank’s PREM Poverty Group and developed in collaboration with SDV, WBI and the PREM Public Sector Group. Supported by a concept paper, it is a generic introductory-level module which may be adapted to suit different target audiences and time frames.
Social Accountability Mechanisms: Some questions to ask • What is the mechanism and how does it work? • Who or what interests initiated and supported it? • Whose voice was articulated and by whom? • What sector or service is addressed and at what level of government? • What factors promote success or limit impact? • To what extent does the mechanism build citizen voice and create strengthened connections between citizens and the state? • What are the prospects for institutionalizing the mechanism?
