Senegal is one of the few stable democracies in West Africa; however, weak checks and balances have historically undermined good governance. Assistance supports decentralization and development at the local level, promotes government-wide transparency and accountability, and supports electoral and political processes.

USAID'S DEMOCRACY AND GOVERNANCE PROGRAM IN SENEGAL AIMS TO:

  • Strengthen democratic political culture and civil society by supporting the means through which citizens can freely organize, advocate, and communicate;
  • Promote government institutions that are democratic, effective, responsive, sustainable, and accountable to citizens;
  • Ensure that elections are competitive and reflect the will of an informed citizenry; and
  • Advance and protect individual rights and promote societies in which the state and its citizens are accountable to laws.
