Great to see this summary while visiting the fantastic IBP Nigeria team this week.
#Nigeria is one of the top improvers in our #OBS2021 survey along with #TheGambia and #Azerbaijan. Watch how #civilsociety worked with both the executive and the legislative arms of government to achieve these gains.

Multilevel approaches to monitoring & advocacy are often used by civil society actors working on #socialaccountability. But they are sometimes overlooked. A new working paper looks at patterns in 10 health rights programs using multilevel approaches bit.ly/3HGeZvb
A wonderful document on a govt seriously grappling with accountable and equitable budgeting.
The three golden rules? Mainstreaming transparency, participation and accountability in the Scottish Budget. Great insights for all contexts. spice-spotlight.scot/2023/01… via @SPICe_Research @OpenBudgets

This is fantastic. South African civil society lead on participation in public budgets. What if the Treasury follow though with the same pioneering zeal that they brought to budget transparency?
