Democracy Works Foundation

About

Democracy Works Foundation (DWF) is an African, nonpartisan and non-profit organisation with initiatives in Botswana, Lesotho, Malawi and South Africa. DWF opened its doors in 2014 in South Africa in response to the weakening of public institutions, corruption and declining citizen participation. It is an organisation committed to promoting and building democracy in Southern Africa and supporting inclusive development and regional cooperation. DWF believes in developing homegrown and innovative solutions that support public officials and states to be more open, transparent, responsive and accountable. We also work to build the capacity of citizens and provide tools enabling them to better impact their democracies, meet their obligations and claim their rights. DWF works on the supply and demand side of democracy.
