Within the context of its advocacy work for economic and social rights, ANND established a monitoring function in 2011 to enhance the role of civil society in observing and holding accountable social and economic policies based on their impact on the reality of rights. The most important results of this function are crystallized in the Arab Watch Report on Economic and Social Rights (AWR), which is a periodic report issued by the Network once every two years and which focuses on the national, regional and international policies and factors that lead to the violation of the rights being monitored. The AWR is developed through a participatory process which brings together relevant stakeholders, including civil society, experts in the field, academics, and representatives from the government in each of the countries represented in the report, as a means of increasing ownership among them and ensuring its localization and relevance to the context. Each report includes a regional overview of the outcomes of the research conducted, thematic papers which cover cross-cutting regional themes relevant to the rights being monitored, and national reports written by national authors addressing the rights being monitored in their respective country.
