The lively city of Luanda, Angola , hosted the launch of the DWF led Regional Programme: Political Parties and Elections Support on 5 June 2024. This five-year regional initiative aims to promote resilient democracies in Southern Africa , collaborating with political parties, electoral institutions, and key stakeholders."Democracy faces significant challenges globally, particularly in our region. Public trust in democratic institutions, including political parties, has declined.
"This morning, I speak from South Africa, where we've recently undergone a significant democratic event. This past election once again highlighted the importance of supporting political parties. In the upcoming Parliament, South Africa will face coalition dynamics, which is uncommon in the region. Therefore, our political parties require substantial support in this aspect," remarked Olmo von Meijenfeldt.
At the core of this three-pronged strategy is DWF's commitment to inclusivity, which includes collaborating with both governing and opposition parties, nurturing trust, maintaining strict non-partisanship, and ensuring transparency in the programs being implemented.Various political parties, development partners, and the USA Embassy in Angola participated in the launch event, endorsing the programme's key objectives and implementation approach.
