This grant, offered by the USAID Nicaragua Mission, is designed to foster robust democratic political and electoral processes, extending beyond the 2011-12 electoral cycle. Its primary purpose is to cultivate a more inclusive democracy by empowering the next generation of leaders, specifically through strengthening democratic leadership among youth. Furthermore, the program aims to enhance meaningful political party engagement at both national and local levels, promoting broader participation in the political sphere. A crucial component of this initiative involves bolstering civil society’s capacity to provide vigilant oversight of electoral processes, thereby ensuring transparency and accountability. Ultimately, this funding seeks to solidify democratic foundations and practices within Nicaragua for long-term stability and engagement.
