    (A.A.U, 2024-06-09) Zelalem Mamuye; Jemal Abagissa (PhD)
    Social accountability and community participation are very important tools for promoting good governance. It's becoming clearer to more and more people that social accountability and community involvement are important for building good government. The study's purpose is to find out what happens to good governance when social accountability and community participation are put into place in Harari Regional State Shenkor Woreda. The people who are part of this study are service providers and users of the Shenkor woreda Administration. The study uses purposeful sampling to look at how social accountability and community participation affect good governance in the health and education sectors that were chosen. Furthermore, 386 is the sample size when Taro Yamane's formula is used. To get complete information, the researcher used a number of different methods to gather it, such as a survey, a focus group discussion, interviews with key informants, document analysis, and secondary data sources. One important finding of the study is that the people in Shenkor Woreda are involved in local groups and social accountability initiatives. However, they need a lot more education and awareness to better understand and do their part in these areas. People also have a positive view of the government. However, there are still things that need to be fixed in order to improve social accountability and citizen participation, especially when it comes to getting past resistance from authorities and limited resources. Finally, the researcher suggests holding regular interactive workshops and targeted outreach programs to teach people about social responsibility and community involvement. This will make sure that everyone in the community fully understands and is involved.
