this was a Learning Network of eleven global partnerships that have worked with us

Pathways to Accountability: A short guide to the GAP Framework -
Publisher: Monica Blagescu, Lucy de Las Casas and Robert Lloyd
Source: One World Trust
The GAP Framework provides a baseline for what is important if organisations are to improve their accountability to stakeholders. It can be used by organisations internally, to increase their accountability, and by stakeholder groups to advocate for accountability reform of organisations that affect them. It does not seek to provide detailed information on approaches to accountability. This reflects the the One World Trust’s recognition that a one-size-fits-all approach to accountability is not possible. Approaches will differ between organisations, within organisations, and depending on
the issue, context and stakeholders involved. However, there are common factors, regardless of the sector, that must be taken into consideration in order to increase accountability in an effective and meaningful way. It is these common factors that are outlined in the guidelines.

Working in the Middle: Roles and Challenges of Intermediaries -
Publisher: Xavier de Souza Briggs
Source: The Community Problem-Solving Project @ MIT
Attenion to the valuable functions of intermediaries or "go-betweens" has increased in the past decade as the demand for new forms of civic capacity, particularly at the local level, has grown worldwide. But little concrete advice exists about when intermediaries are needed, why they play some roles and not others in particular communities, how they should balance accountability to "many masters," etc. This tool outlines the useful roles that go-betweens can play, offers guidance on the capacities they need to play those roles more effectively, and illustrates the process of figuring out whether and how the roles should change over time.
