Checks and balances between state institutions are crucial for holding the government accountable, and preventing executive aggrandizement and corruption. Recognizing the significance of horizontal accountability in achieving robust and sustainable democracy, the Asia Democracy Research Network (ADRN) has conducted research to evaluate the current trends and trajectories of horizontal accountability in the region, as well as proposing key reforms for the future. As part of this research, EAI launched a working paper series comprising seven final reports, covering the cases of Indonesia, Mongolia, Pakistan, South Korea, Sri Lanka, Taiwan, and Thailand.
