Improving watchdog agencies

Description

Improving watchdog agencies involves strengthening their independence, resources, and oversight mechanisms to ensure effective monitoring and accountability of institutions and authorities. This strategy addresses issues such as corruption, abuse of power, and regulatory failures by enhancing transparency, enforcing compliance, and enabling timely interventions. Key actions include securing adequate funding, protecting whistleblowers, establishing clear mandates, and fostering public engagement, thereby increasing the agencies’ capacity to detect, investigate, and remedy misconduct or systemic weaknesses.
