Democracy & Gorvenance
For ICOD Zim, decisions which the central government makes, local authorities and solution holders is fundamental to ensuring that democracy delivers for women and women with disabilities.
In an ideal world, strong democratic governance is characterized by transparency and accountability in both the public and private sectors. An open, participatory governance process responds to women and women with disability needs, resulting in better and fairer government policies.
To this end, ICOD democratic governance programs promote open, informed public decision-making and principled corporate governance towards women and women living with disabilities.
