Sommario/riassunto

In 1993, the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA), the International Development Research Centre (IDRC), and the democratic movement of South Africa jointly launched the PoG. Its mission today is the same as it was then: to help South Africa build the capacity to govern itself. Supporting Democracy provides a new window through which to view the transition to democracy in South Africa. It describes the approaches used by the PoG to assist its South African partners, as well as the activities the program has designed and developed.
