Yet access to basic services is still uneven, especially in municipalities in former Homeland and Traditional Authority (TA) areas.\n\nThese municipalities continue to face the legacy of historical spatial exclusion. Many have weak local economies, infrastructure backlogs and low institutional capacity, which limit service delivery, investment, socioeconomic opportunities and growth.\n\nThis policy briefing places municipal performance gaps in their historical context and shows how data-driven tools, such as Good Governance Africa’s Governance Performance Index (GPI), can identify where service delivery and socio-economic weaknesses are most severe, where progress is being made and how support can be targeted.\n\nThe findings show that decades after the formal end of apartheid, former Homeland\u002FTA municipalities remain concentrated in lower service-delivery rank bands and still lag behind in access to safe water, proper sanitation and reliable waste removal services. These gaps partly mirror the historical and spatial inequalities that continue to shape citizens’ opportunities.\n\nThe authors argue that the GPI can serve as a practical diagnostic tool for government, the private sector, civil society and development partners to identify where municipalities are improving, where weaknesses remain, where support is most urgent and which interventions are likely to have the greatest impact.\n\n**Authors**: Owami Tshuma and Nnaemeka Ohamadike (Good Governance Africa)\n","Good Governance Africa","2026-07-20",true,[17],{"url":18,"caption":19},"https:\u002F\u002Fgga.org\u002Flocal-governance-and-service-delivery-the-importance-of-historical-context-in-understanding-local-government-performance-in-former-homelands\u002F","Access the policy briefing via Good Governance Africa",false,[22,23,24,25],"HLRM","Integrity Pacts","Human rights","Collective Action",[27],"English",[29,30],"Policy Brief","Report",[25],"This policy briefing places municipal performance gaps in South Africa in their historical context and shows how data-driven tools, such as Good Governance Africa’s Governance Performance Index (GPI), can identify where service delivery and socio-economic weaknesses are most severe, where progress is being made and how support can be targeted.","The importance of historical context in understanding local government performance in former Homelands ",{"id":35,"storage":36,"filename_disk":37,"filename_download":38,"title":39,"type":40,"created_on":41,"modified_on":8,"charset":7,"filesize":42,"width":43,"height":44,"duration":7,"embed":7,"description":7,"location":7,"tags":7,"metadata":45,"focal_point_x":7,"focal_point_y":7,"tus_id":7,"tus_data":7,"uploaded_on":41},"cf24aaa0-b36d-477a-9b39-e31505f1a843","local","cf24aaa0-b36d-477a-9b39-e31505f1a843.jpg","Local-Governance-and-Service-Delivery-PB.jpg","Local Governance and Service Delivery policy briefing","image\u002Fjpeg","2026-09-09T13:16:12.000Z",342148,1654,2339,{},[47],{"id":48,"publications_id":49,"countries_id":63},1211,{"id":5,"status":6,"sort":7,"user_created":50,"date_created":8,"user_updated":50,"date_updated":9,"nid":7,"slug":10,"image":35,"title":11,"body":12,"citation":7,"language":7,"year":7,"publisher":13,"date_published":14,"external":15,"topic":7,"link_internal":7,"link_external":51,"featured":20,"topics":53,"languages":54,"type":55,"area":7,"programme":7,"websites":56,"summary":32,"pdf_text":7,"main_points":7,"short_version":7,"subtitle":33,"og_image":7,"countries":57,"tags":58,"pdf":60,"authors":61,"translations_publications":62},"d22c72aa-896a-43ce-acca-4154ff70a25a",[52],{"url":18,"caption":19},[22,23,24,25],[27],[29,30],[25],[48],[59],5278,[],[],[],{"id":64,"name":65,"code":66,"latitude":67,"longitude":68},243,"South Africa","ZA",-30.55948,22.93751,[70],{"id":59,"publications_id":71,"tags_id":83},{"id":5,"status":6,"sort":7,"user_created":50,"date_created":8,"user_updated":50,"date_updated":9,"nid":7,"slug":10,"image":35,"title":11,"body":12,"citation":7,"language":7,"year":7,"publisher":13,"date_published":14,"external":15,"topic":7,"link_internal":7,"link_external":72,"featured":20,"topics":74,"languages":75,"type":76,"area":7,"programme":7,"websites":77,"summary":32,"pdf_text":7,"main_points":7,"short_version":7,"subtitle":33,"og_image":7,"countries":78,"tags":79,"pdf":80,"authors":81,"translations_publications":82},[73],{"url":18,"caption":19},[22,23,24,25],[27],[29,30],[25],[48],[59],[],[],[],{"id":84,"name":85},1371,"Public governance",[],[],[],{},[91,196,231,272,347,376,426,465,502,533],{"id":92,"slug":93,"title":94,"status":6,"nid":95,"year":96,"body":97,"external":20,"topic":98,"language":27,"type":99,"date_published":101,"image":102,"citation":103,"publisher":104,"link_internal":105,"link_external":106,"authors":110,"countries":119,"tags":186,"pdf":187,"topics":189,"featured":20,"languages":190,"summary":7,"programme":7,"area":7,"websites":7,"pdf_text":7,"sort":7,"user_created":191,"date_created":192,"user_updated":193,"date_updated":194,"main_points":7,"short_version":7,"subtitle":7,"og_image":7,"link":195},2280,"engaging-private-sector-collective-action-against-corruption-practical-guide-anti","Engaging the private sector in Collective Action against corruption: A practical guide for anti-corruption agencies in Africa",2443,2024,"This guidance seeks to capture and explore the innovative approaches that African governments have developed to address the demand and supply sides of corruption more effectively and sustainably. It is designed to help government institutions, in particular national anti-corruption agencies, engage with the private sector more effectively to prevent corruption.\n\nThe document highlights good practices identified through interviews, desk research and a 2021 Southern African Development Community (SADC) training on “Emerging anti-corruption issues and private-sector engagement for SADC anti-corruption agencies”.\n\nAfrica offers many examples of innovative, unique and context-sensitive approaches to engage the private sector in anti-corruption efforts. Ghana’s National Anti-Corruption Action Plan, for instance, offers an award scheme and is looking into providing tax benefits to companies that enforce anti-corruption measures and demonstrate leadership in the fight against corruption. Other agencies and governments in the region, such as Morocco, are currently discussing implementing a reward system for compliant companies that can be considered when companies bid for public tenders.\n\nThese examples demonstrate how African governments proactively seek to tackle corruption and collaborate with the private sector.\n\nFrom the initiatives captured, three common strategic approaches can be identified to underpin effective and impactful engagement:\n\n\n- **Raising awareness,** guiding and working with the private sector to more effectively address corruption risks.\n- **Identifying and providing incentives** to companies investing in their compliance programmes.\n- **Demonstrating leadership** by actively participating in Collective Action and public-private partnerships.\n\n\nThis document is a follow-up of a [practical global guide](https:\u002F\u002Fcollective-action.com\u002Fexplore\u002Fpublications\u002F2199) published in July 2022 and was produced with the support of the Siemens Integrity Initiative.\n\nIt is freely shareable under a Creative Commons [CC BY-NC-ND 4.0](https:\u002F\u002Fcreativecommons.org\u002Flicenses\u002Fby-nc-nd\u002F4.0\u002F) licence.

corruption prevention activities in the private sector** - by setting up events and platforms, providing advisory support and engaging the private sector in developing National Anti-Corruption Strategies.\n- **Support and incentivise the private sector to engage in corruption prevention activities and initiatives** - by creating tangible business benefits for companies investing in compliance, incentivising companies to externalise their compliance programmes, and supporting compliance certification.\n- **Demonstrate leadership by becoming an active participant in Collective

This short conference report presents main insights, quotes as well as infographics and graphic recordings from the two-day event, which welcomed around 200 people from around the world and across all sectors.\n\nA key theme of this year’s conference was the importance of building local, regional and international communities of practice. These communities bring together different constellations of people and organisations interested in the Collective Action approach to improve skills, develop joint solutions and advance knowledge about how to make initiatives effective in different contexts. \n\nFive panel discussions, three interactive breakout sessions and multiple networking opportunities, including an exhibition, offered many occasions for sharing experiences and best practices in anti-corruption Collective Action and breaking down silos.\n\n### About this report and acknowledgements\n\nThe Basel Institute on Governance thanks the Siemens Integrity Initiative for supporting and providing funding for the conference’s 5th edition, as well as all speakers and breakout session facilitating organisations.

This integrated approach to financial and sustainability-related information empowers better-informed decisions that deliver long-term value creation. This delivers financial returns to investors while taking account of value to customers, employees, suppliers, and societal interests.\n\nAn integrated mindset extends to all environmental, social, and governance (ESG) issues. This report will help companies — in particular, their professional accountants in business — apply an integrated mindset to anti-corruption oversight and compliance programs, a crucial component of the governance “G” in ESG.\n\nMoreover, it highlights that a commitment to an ethical culture is fundamental to an integrated mindset. Corruption evolves and changes constantly, creating risks that go beyond what companies can address internally, such as distorting competition and creating an uneven playing field between competitors.\n\nWorking toward developing more integrated industry approaches that lift the standards of business integrity at the sectoral or country level through Collective Action can be an effective way for companies to work toward future-proofing their compliance programs. “whole of business” approach to anti-corruption compliance.",[25,434],[30],"2024-07-04","https:\u002F\u002Fbaselgovernance.org\u002Fcms\u002Fapi\u002Fassets\u002F706ca471-599d-4f99-a38a-7f9bc6e2180b?format=webp&quality=90&width=600&height=840","IFAC, ICAEW, Basel Institute on Governance",[545],{"url":546,"caption":547},"https:\u002F\u002Fbaselgovernance.org\u002Fnode\u002F2650\u002F"," View related event",[],[],[],[],[553],2392,[25,226],[27],"2024-07-05T10:05:01.000Z","2026-08-06T10:05:16.000Z","\u002Fresources\u002Fpublications\u002Fintegrated-mindset-practice-professional-accountants-business-and-anti-corruption",1788966238839]
