Podcast Description
The AccountabiliTea Podcast unpacks key governance and anti-corruption trends for people interested in, and working in, the accountability sector.
The Accountability Lab was founded in early 2012 as an effort to work with young people to develop new ideas for accountability, transparency and open government. It has evolved into a global translocal network that works to find new ways to shift societal norms, solve intractable challenges and build “unlikely networks” for change.

As funding landscapes shift and uncertainty grows, civil society organizations around the world are being asked to adapt – often while continuing to deliver on their missions.
In this episode of AccountabiliTea, we bring together Anabel Cruz, Director of the Communication & Development Institute in Uruguay, Dr.Fay Hodza, Global Senior Director of Programs at Promoting Equality in African Schools (PEAS), and Leah Shearman, Global Director of Development at Accountability Lab, to reflect on what this moment means in practice.
From funding constraints and geopolitical pressures to collaboration, system-strengthening, and new ways of working, the conversation explores how organizations are responding –and what is beginning to change.
What emerges is a nuanced picture: one shaped by challenge, but also by creativity, solidarity, and a rethinking of how civil society operates.
What does it take to meet the moment – and what comes next?
