A social audit is a community-led process that facilitates public participation in the monitoring of government service delivery and expenditure
This guide helps you to develop a social audit questionnaire that will collect evidence or information that will be easy to capture and analyse, and will provide accurate and representative findings and recommendations that can be used to engage with government.
The Metro Open Budget Survey (Metro OBS) is modelled on the global Open Budget Survey (OBS) initiated by the International Budget Partnership in 2006. The Metro OBS goes a level deeper by applying the OBS methodology to local government, and assesses the three pillars of budget accountability, namely transparency, public participation and oversight.

Asivikelane has created sanitation posters with guidelines for informal settlement residents to avoid the transmission of coronavirus in shared toilets. The posters are free to download and are available in multiple languagues.
This guide is designed to help informal settlement communities find the documents that provide information about a service being delivered to their community. They can use this information to monitor if the service is being delivered according to the contract and to engage with the municipality to improve the delivery of the service.
Government departments need to follow legally defined procedures when purchasing goods and services from the private sector. The goal is to achieve fair value with public funds but when procurement fails, service delivery suffers. Late or poor-quality goods and services affect people’s lives directly. This guide equips civil society organisations and interested readers to monitor public procurement. Effective oversight can enhance service delivery, reduce corruption, and promote public participation.
