Building back better strengthening governance and compliance across Africa



Published
Supporting public and private organizations to strengthen governance and compliance across Africa is a key objective of the ALN Academy and is a crucial element of building back better in a post-pandemic world. Governance refers to the structure and the processes necessary to ensure the rule of law, accountability, transparency, equality, empowerment, and stability. African countries have historically grappled with fragile institutional environments. The need to strengthen all areas of governance has become more acute during the COVID-19 pandemic. We certainly find ourselves in a moment of necessity and therefore African governments and private actors need to make sure that concerted efforts are made to build increasingly efficient, innovative and inclusive organizations. From fragile systems, we need to work towards building resilient ones. Governance underpins progress. The COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated socioeconomic and geopolitical inequality. African countries need to take this experience and work towards policy responses and crisis management.
Building back better will involve measures that need to respond to the immediate crisis but also a long term vision that has to involve all citizens of Africa, we all have to partake, the focus should be on ensuring that the vulnerable are protected and very importantly ensuring that transparency and integrity prevail across both the public and private spheres. The road ahead is long but it is perfectly doable. We at ALN both individually and through the ALN Academy are committed to this cause supporting both the public and private spheres in improving governance structures for the future of the continent.
