Who we are

Good Governance Africa is a research and advocacy non-profit organisation with centres across Africa focused solely on improving governance across the continent.

GGA engages in applied research and stimulates critical debate. All our work is based on exploring and advancing the key governance principles of democracy, accountability and transparency, and combining these with upholding the rule of law and respecting human, civil and property rights.

What is GGA's vision?

Our vision is for an Africa where citizens are empowered, governments are effective, businesses thrive, poverty is eradicated, and GGA is the pre-eminent partner for advancing good governance. 

What is GGA's mission?

At GGA, our mission is to transform lives through promoting exceptional governance. We are dedicated to empowering individuals – particularly those affected by poverty, unemployment, and poor governance – to hold their governments accountable and actively improve their own lives.

Our approach involves rigorous policy research, advocacy for effective governance, and the fostering of strategic partnerships to enhance societal and economic conditions.

Additionally, we support government leaders and public servants in Africa by providing researched policy solutions aimed at fostering sustainable improvements in citizens’ lives. Through our efforts, we strive to cultivate a culture of accountability and prosperity, ensuring that every citizen can thrive in a just and equitable society.

What are GGA's values?

GGA’s internal values – Transparency, Respect, Accountability, and Purpose—serve as our guiding principles.

Independence ensures our apolitical stance and commitment to evidence-based research, incisiveness delivers impactful analysis, integrity maintains trust and authority, courage empowers us to speak truth to power responsibly, and credibility obliges us to maintain high editorial standards.

These values are embedded into our standard operating procedures, upheld by our teams, and are crucial in positioning us as a leader in promoting effective governance globally.
