The Communication for Governance and
Accountability Program (CommGAP) was established in 2006 as
a global program to confront challenges which create
barriers to achieving effective and sustainable governance
outcomes. In particular, CommGAP was created to address
specific c gaps that undercut the quality of governance
reform efforts: a structural gap, a process gap, and a
capacity gap. The structural gap, produced by the
insufficient recognition of the public sphere as an
essential part in securing good governance and
accountability, leads to a narrow, fragmented approach in
the design and approach of many governance reform programs.
The process gap is one that arises from a lack of applicable
processes to deal effectively with political economy issues
and people-related challenges due to vested interests and
stakeholder resistance to change. The capacity gap deals
with the problem of the meager capabilities among
researchers, development and communication practitioners in
government agencies, NGOs or private firms in ways that
hinder their ability to provide effective and strategic
support in the implementation of governance reform programs. |
