Southern Africa
In South Africa, safeguarding and adding to the young democracy’s achievements are key issues. In light of the dominance of the ANC and of the executive authorities, the Foundation aims to contribute to strengthening democratic institutions and to improving cooperation between civil society and political decision-makers. Over a decade after the end of apartheid, the South African government is still confronted with acute problems due to mass poverty and an extreme income gap. The government is banking on fast economic growth as a proven solution to these difficulties.
The regional office of the Heinrich Böll Foundation in Southern Africa, headquartered in Cape Town, monitors the four programs:
