Democracy Works Foundation (DWF), a southern African non-profit company based in Johannesburg, is dedicated to the development of democracy in the region. Established in 2014, DWF was founded in response to concerns about the weakening of public institutions, corruption, and declining public participation in South Africa, as well as the overall democratic progress in post-liberation Southern Africa. As an independent foundation, DWF aims to build and promote inclusive, equitable, and sustainable consensus democracies.

They provide tools, platforms, and content to strengthen both democrats and democratic culture, as well as democracy institutions. DWF operates across various programmatic areas, including monitoring the state of democracies, supporting the capacity of democracy institutions, training future democrats to drive change, strengthening the connection between climate and democracy, and providing platforms for democratic engagement. Additionally, Democracy Works Foundation offers advisory services on good governance and social impact, serving as a fiscal host and fund manager.

With a belief that democracy is an ongoing process, DWF is committed to continuously investing in and nurturing resilient democracy and development. Please note that the provided data may not cover the full range of products and services offered by Democracy Works Foundation
