WAJIBU
INSTITUTE OF PUBLIC
ACCOUNTABILITY
CSOs week on November 4th to 8th 2019 in Dodoma
WAJIBU – Institute of Public Accountability is a registered Non-governmental organization under the NGOs Act No.24 of 2002 with Registration No.00056. WAJIBU is an established think-tank institution founded with the purpose of fostering an environment that supports and promotes public accountability in Tanzania.
WAJIBU founders believe that mobilizing public engagement on the issue of public accountability is key to ensuring that progress made so far in the Public Financial Management sector is consolidated and maintained. This will only be achieved if the accountability agenda in the country is people centered; owned, managed and driven by people themselves which involves following up on the collection and use of public resources with the view of maximizing their impact in the country’s development process. The people should be in a better position to understand and demand accountability from duty bearers.
