Mo Ibrahim Foundation on Wednesday, January 25th, launched the 2022 Ibrahim Index of African Governance (IIAG) Report. This edition foregrounds critical matters from 2019 till 2022 that interfere in the progress of the continent such as the COVID-19 pandemic, insecurity, terrorist attacks and political agitations.
Since 2007, IIAG constitutes the most comprehensive data on governance in Africa. Every two years, across 54 African countries over a period of ten years – that is, between 2012 to 2021 – the index gives comparable information on every aspect of African government, including safety and security, rule of law, openness, rights, and participation in economic possibilities, as well as education, health, and the environment. The current data expose that African governance has not only remained static but also drastically fallen.
