Southern Africa Trust

The Southern Africa Trust supports processes to deepen and widen participation in policy dialogue with a regional impact on poverty...

"In southern Africa, there is a high level of official commitment to meeting the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and overcoming poverty, both by governments and by continental and regional organisations such as the African Union (AU), the New Partnership for Africa’s Development (NEPAD) and the Southern African Development Community (SADC)...

"The Southern Africa Trust was therefore established in 2005 to support civil society organisations in southern Africa to participate effectively and with credibility in policy dialogue so that the voices of the poor can have a better impact in the development of public policies."
