Abstract
EISAis a not-for-profit organisation established in the mid-1990s and based
in Johannesburg, South Africa. Its mission is mainly to promote quality
electoral processes in the SADC region. But electoral processes require
other related and necessary processes, structures and conditions to obtain
if elections are to be free, fair and democratic.
With this in mind EISA has been engaged in programmes targeting such
structures as political parties, electoral management boards, civil society
organisations of all kinds, governance institutions in African countries,
and so on. EISA’s vision is ‘An African continent where democratic
governance, human rights and citizen participation are upheld in a peaceful
environment’.
