<div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;display:inline"></div>Governance in Africa (GiA) provides an alternative form of academic journal offering free access to research and expert commentary from leading and emerging authors in the field, and from those who have direct experience of the impacts of governance in Africa today. In this context, ‘governance’ in Africa refers to the local/traditional, the national, the regional and the global.<br>
<br>Good governance is a central preoccupation among policy makers and development practitioners, but in-depth and context specific analysis based on sound and localised evidence is sparse in the literature and dispersed among a variety of loosely associated publications. <b><font color="#ff0000">The objective of GiA is to consolidate knowledge in this field and bring together a substantial evidential base on which to make relevant, constructive and informed policy choices.<div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;display:inline">
