Political and Constitutional Governance
Overview
We work to secure and increase the integrity and credibility of the institutions and processes of democratic representation and accountability, including local and national elections and election management; citizen and community access to, and participation in the processes of political decision-making and governance; and the responsiveness and accountability of political institutions at both local and national levels.
Our political and constitutional governance work specifically covers:
- Elections and election observation, national and local.
- Election management accountability
- Decentralization and local/urban governance
- Legislative engagement
- Political parties and campaigns
- Independent constitutional bodies (commissions)
