Accountable Now co-edited several issues of the Southasiadisasters.net journal from the All India Disaster Mitigation Institute. The journal brings practitioners, researchers, and community leaders from around the world to explore a wide range of topics from disaster risk reduction to global health threats and how people power and accountability can address these challenges.
Real and meaningful accountability is about more than audited reports, it implies a constant dialogue with a diverse range of stakeholders, including the people and communities that have been marginalised. This issue covers a range of themes related to accountability and depict how it can lead to social innovation, resilience, and the sustainability and community ownership of development outcomes.
The pandemic contributed to a massive funding crunch for civil society organizations (CSOs) and forced many to pivot their activities to respond to the challenges. This issue focuses on how the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted accountability in the humanitarian, development and risk reduction sectors.
After the past waves of the pandemic, the time has come to make accountability greener with smaller and even smaller carbon footprints and larger roles of ecosystem-based activities and results. Check out this collection of articles showing how practitioners, communities, organisations, and institutions around the world are practicing environmental accountability.
We practice and promote a dynamic approach to accountability, centred on continuous and meaningful dialogue with all those impacted by an organization’s work and being responsive to their feedback.
