Description/notes

At the Southern Africa Trust, we work to strengthen the voice and agency of poor people in policy processes to reduce poverty and inequality in southern Africa. Established in 2005, the Trust works in the following thematic focus areas Climate Change and Natural Resource Management, Youth Empowerment, Gender Justice and Economic Development facilitating expansive civil society engagements in national and regional policy dialogues to ensure the voices of the poor are heard, and they influence policies to end poverty.

The activities of the Trust seek to strengthen the voice and agency of marginalized groups from the region through building regional networks that endorse effective and credible voices for policy change. The Trust aims to promote regional integration and to champion a regional agenda.
