What is the Mulembe Sentinel Index?

The Sentinel Index measures governance quality across the Great Lakes region.

It updates several times a week.

What countries does Mulembe Politics cover?

We cover governance across Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda, Burundi, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Zambia, Malawi, Mozambique, Ethiopia, South Sudan, and Somalia. Our most detailed coverage is Kenya, with ward-level data across all 47 counties.
