Africa-Press – Tanzania. <\/strong><\/span>ZANZIBAR Catholic Bishop Augustine Shao has challenged parents to raise their children with a culture of transparency and accountability to help build a society of total translucency and responsibility.<\/p>\n

Bishop Shao said parents can do so through giving their children freedom to ask them questions.<\/p>\n

\u201cLet\u2019s allow our children to ask parents questions and parents answer openly and loudly. This is the culture that should start from family level, so that the nation can have a culture of transparency and accountability,\u201d Bishop Shao stated when speaking here at an international conference on transparency and accountability.<\/p>\n

The Norwegian Church Aid (NCA) partnered with the Wajibu Institute in hosting the two-day conference, which ended yesterday in the city.<\/p>\n

The event was aimed at giving participants a high-level overview of the global trends and practices in the use of public funds, project resources and in the provision of timely, high quality, cost-effective service delivery for citizens thereby holding those in public office accountable for their actions and misuse of power.<\/p>\n

Bishop Shao attended the conference as member of national interfaith standing committee and among faith actors that benefited from the project called \u2018Strengthening Civil Society\u2019 implemented by the NCA.<\/p>\n

The NCA and faith actors were engaged heavily on advocating for citizens\u2019 rights to benefit from revenues accrued from extraction of natural resources through transparency and accountability.<\/p>\n

Faith actors are empowered to mobilise rights holders and dialogue with duty bearers at all levels with focus on natural resource good governance.<\/p>\n

The move also was intended to empower community anti-corruption groups to follow up and track on public resources for development, address corruption and reduction of mismanagement through public expenditure tracking systems (PETS) and social accountability monitoring (SAM).<\/p>\n

On the other hand, Bishop Shao appealed to lawyers working with Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) to come forward and challenge in court government leaders suspected of squandering public funds without waiting steps to be taken by the government against them.<\/p>\n

Commenting on citizens\u2019 engagement in implementing monitoring and reporting in the use of public funds, Mr Chimuka Nachibinga, from Transparency International in Zambia, proposed for supportive funds monitoring legislation.<\/p>\n

Mr Nachibinga also suggested that budget monitoring and expenditure tracking initiatives should be implemented as long-term programmes along with capacity building among citizens was also necessary.<\/p>\n
