Abstract

This chapter defines governance and explores how good governance is integral to realizing the United Nations Agenda 2030 Sustainable Development Goals and the African Union Agenda 2063 aspirations. It then examines the various governance structures established within Africa in order to provide an overview of the frameworks that inform governance within the continent, as well as the specific challenges that need to be overcome to ensure good governance. An analysis of the current governance levels in Africa is presented through an examination of the African Peer Review Mechanism’s African Governance Report and the Ibrahim Index of African Governance study and critical areas requiring improvements are identified.
