Helping Citizens & Governments Work Together for a Better Africa
We envision Africa’s equitable future through accountable citizen-state relations.
We equip citizens with knowledge and tools to shape decisions, while helping leaders respond effectively to their needs.
Our work promotes active civic participation & state responsiveness through research, advocacy and capacity building.
Equitable Justice and Sentencing Reform Programme
Our Equitable Justice and Sentencing Reform Programme tackles systemic barriers in Africa’s legal systems—from prolonged pre-trial detentions to overcrowded prisons. We advocate for non-custodial sentencing, expanded legal aid, and policy reforms to ensure fair, humane justice for all.
Global Network of African Policy Process Researchers (AfriPoliNet)
AfriPoliNet connects scholars challenging Western policy theories with African perspectives. We foster collaboration, amplify local research, and bridge the gap between policymakers and evidence—because Africa’s governance solutions must stem from its realities.
