The Elections & Political Parties program is dedicated to enhancing democratic processes through free and fair elections as well as democratization of political parties.

D4D collaborates with key election stakeholders and is involved in a range of election related activities, from voter education and election observation, to voting trends, electoral justice, advocacy and electoral reform and improvement of the voter lists. To support the democratization of political parties, D4D has mapped the party ideologies and employs advocacy as a tool to improve legislation related to political party transparency and accountability, equal gender representation in election management bodies and youth involvement in decision-making.
