Our Vision and Mission
Our vision is to help improve governance by mainstreaming the social accountability approach. ANSA-EAP cultivates the East Asia-Pacific way of doing social accountability - upholding the region's diverse culture and norms.
We reach out to citizen groups, non-government organizations, civic associations, the business sector, and government institutions. We promote the monitoring by citizens of government performance, specifically, the quality of public service delivery and the transparency of public transactions. The bottom line: ethical public leadership.
ANSA-EAP mines and enhances the region's knowledge, expertise, and experiences. Through ANSA-EAP, home-grown efforts can make people realize the direction and value of their participation in governance. This further enriches the existing community of learning and practice.

We Build Partnerships
Two forces drive social accountability: citizen groups, which are direct beneficiaries of public services, and government, which provides the open space for citizen participation in monitoring public programs.
ANSA-EAP builds strong partnerships among citizen groups and between citizens and government. Through local partners, our network helps ensure the capability of citizen groups and government to work together so that vital public services are delivered to the people in a way that is not only efficient but also honest and responsible.

We Harness Expertise
ANSA-EAP harnesses both global and East Asia-Pacific expertise and experiences so that groups skilled in social accountability techniques can pass these on to others hungry for the knowledge.
