What is the role of parliamentarians and ward councillors in Covid-19 interventions? By ESTERI MSINDO and SIYABULELA FOBOSI The Covid-19 pandemic has brought about multifaceted socio-economic challenges including job losses, loss of income and rising health costs. This discussion forum aims to explore the various ways that duty bearers are being accountable to the public during COVID-19, the challenges as well as successes in various contexts. Join the discussion to share your thoughts, if not lessons learnt in this regards.

As one of the organisations partnering with GPSA to host the 2019 Forum, Public Service Accountability Monitor (PSAM) dedicated this forum to the subject matter that is the main focus of the GPSA Forum in 2019. The theme of the GPSA forum aims to explore the role social accountability plays when meeting the challenge of inclusion in the public sector. The dialogue is expected to encompass new dynamics as well as continued evolution of the field call for social accountability practitioners, researchers and development partners to challenge themselves and think about what the foundation of their task is today and how the frontiers of social accountability are evolving.
