In political science, there is accountability when actions by the government are in line with the needs of her citizens. In this Episode, a look at the issues dives in to explore the different ways we can hold the government to account. Join us to listen in on four different experiences from Anelize, Callum, Nick and Prianka.

Anelize Almeida works as attorney of the National Treasury in Brazil. Today, she shares her insights and lessons derived from the bureaucratic legalistic environment in which organisations are immerged in Brazil.
