Abstract

Government performance accountability is an essential element in strengthening transparent and responsible governance. In modern public administration, accountability mechanisms are designed to ensure that public institutions operate effectively, efficiently, and in accordance with legal and ethical standards. The implementation of performance accountability systems enables governments to monitor policy implementation and evaluate administrative performance in delivering public services. This study aims to analyze the role of government performance accountability in strengthening transparent governance and improving administrative effectiveness. The research adopts a qualitative descriptive approach through literature review and policy document analysis. Data were obtained from scientific publications, government reports, and policy documents related to public sector accountability and governance reform. The findings indicate that the implementation of performance accountability systems contributes significantly to improving transparency, strengthening institutional control, and enhancing public trust in government institutions. However, several challenges remain, including institutional capacity limitations, inconsistencies in policy implementation, and inadequate monitoring mechanisms. Strengthening institutional governance frameworks and improving administrative capacity are necessary strategies to enhance the effectiveness of accountability systems in public administration.
