Happy Reconciliation Day, South Africa! Today, as we reflect on the profound connection between good governance and the healing of historical wounds, we are reminded of the power of nurturing. Like a skilled gardener, good governance tends to the delicate seeds of reconciliation, fostering growth and resilience. By upholding principles of transparency, accountability, and inclusivity, we create an environment where the scars of the past can begin to fade. As Nelson Mandela eloquently stated, "The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall." Through the power of good governance, we rise together, building a future where unity and prosperity flourish.

The recent COP29 negotiations in Baku have fluxed the global climate agenda. Nigeria, a climate-vulnerable nation, stands at a crucial crossroads. In this webinar, OLADIRAN BELLO, PhD, Executive Director of GGA Nigeria, will delve deep into the implications of the controversial COP29 deal for Nigeria.

In recent years, lifestyle audits have emerged as a vital tool in combating corruption and financial misconduct within the public sector. These audits ensure that the economic activities of public officials and politicians align with their declared income and assets, reinforcing accountability in the management of taxpayer funds. Good Governance Africa's Chrissy Dube and Special Investigating Unit's Kaizer Kganyago recently joined POWER 98.7's Lerato Mbele to explore the institutionalisation of lifestyle audits. Are these measures critical in the fight against corruption among public servants and politicians? https://lnkd.in/dn5KMxJT

Currently attending the National Dialogue on Anti-Corruption. Here we were signing the Anti-Corruption pledge.

With more elections held this year than ever, 2024 has become a turning point for democratic renewal. The right to vote is not merely a privilege; it is a cornerstone of human rights, a shield against oppression, and a promise of hope. Democracy’s survival is our commitment to free, fair, and transparent elections. This International Human Rights Day, let us remember that every vote calls for justice, equality, and respect—values that protect our shared humanity.
