Thanks, Rachel. I strongly believe in the possibilities for doing exactly that across Africa and the Middle East in particular given the amazing strides already taken by reformers across the board! There is much to be hopeful about and a great deal more to achieve.

Thank you Zukiswa. Agree on the need for stronger networks of reformers that are multi-stakeholder in nature. More support as well to reformers in select southern African countries towards strengthening key dimensions for inclusive, transparent accountable governance. All the best!
