@IRI_Africa has been conducting political party consultations with parties in Mozambique as part of a @NEDemocracy funded regional program aimed at strengthening the parties’ capacity to develop issue-based policies informed by data driven research.

[Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chairman @SenateForeign]

Before a single ballot was cast, #Tanzania's polls were marred by violence & repression. Reported irregularities during yesterday's vote & arrests today of opposition leaders are unacceptable & erode the country's democratic progress. Tanzania's leaders must be held accountable.

Only 25% of seats in national parliaments are held by women and the @wef estimates it will take nearly a century to close this gap.

[IRI Africa @IRI_Africa]

Gender-based violence threatens the security and democratic development of each African country.
