Strengthening Women’s Roles in Parliaments
Governance is the way in which governments and public sector institutions guarantee the rule of law, promote economic growth and provide some measure of social protection to citizens. Generally, the term ‘democratic governance’ refers to a government’s ability to deliver on these promises while adhering to the democratic values of transparency, representation, pluralism and accountability. Governance programmes promote effective public sector institutions and processes that operate in a manner consistent with these democratic values by working with legislatures, executive offices and local governments.
