Luanda - Angola joins the list of the eight African countries with improvements in terms of governance between 2010 and 2019, according to Ibrahim Index of African Governance (IIAG) 2020.

The report says that since 2010, the year of 2019 was the first one that showed a decline compared to the previous year (2018).

The document records the performance of the 54 African countries, stating that eight countries have moved from the deterioration in the quality of governance.

They are Angola, Chad, Ethiopia, Cote d'Ivoire, Madagascar, Seychelles, Sudan and Togo.

The IIAG is supported by the analysis of its specialists in four determining categories, with stress to the participation of civil society in decisions; rights and inclusion; and the rule of law and human development.

The eight countries have managed to improve in all these aspects.

This document also carries some elements of analysis that were not in evidence in the previous ones, such as the environmental issue and equality, the result of an improvement in the availability of data by countries.

It also highlights the opportunities that communities have to be heard by those in power.

The question of the civil voices that are heard is an element that tends, according to analysts, to impose itself as an element of positive differentiation in governance, in view of what until now have been the privileged categories, such as economic improvements and human development.

Mo Ibrahim Foundation believes that, for the future, countries will have better governance, the more the political power listens to the voices coming from civil society and the less it represses its manifestations.
