Tanzania

Overview

Since 2004, NDI has partnered with civic and political organizations in Tanzania to support and strengthen democratic development efforts. As a part of that goal, NDI has worked with citizen observer groups to promote electoral integrity in the 2010, 2015, and 2020 general elections. The Institute has also supported political parties’ internal organization and election preparation through its regional program activities. Currently, NDI is working with Tanzanian civil society organizations and other key partners to foster the political participation of women, youth, and persons with disabilities. The Institute’s initiatives aim to deepen inclusive democratic processes in the country by strengthening dialogue and collaboration on political and electoral reforms among citizen networks and government stakeholders, such as the Office of the Registrar of Political Parties, National Electoral Commission, and the Zanzibar Electoral Commission.
