Africans lead the way – in some cases by wide margins – in working together for change, a new Afrobarometer flagship report reveals. Perhaps reflecting the continent’s long history of participatory/local democracy, they are far ahead of other regions when it comes to attending community meetings and joining with others to raise an issue. The analysis focuses on key indicators of citizen engagement: Voting, political party affiliation, political discussion, attending community meetings, joining with others to raise an issue, contacting leaders, and protesting. Compared to Asia, Latin America, and the Middle East/North Africa (MENA), Africans are more likely to attend community meetings and join with others to raise an issue. The new flagship report is accompanied by country scorecards on citizen engagement that provide an at-a-glance snapshot of the key indicators of citizen participation at the national level for each of the 39 surveyed countries in Africa.
