Caros colegas/parceiros,
Tenho o imenso prazer de divulgar esta Declaração aos Parlamentos Membros e parceiros do Fórum, tendo em vista a celebração do Dia Internacional da Democracia de 2023.
Neste dia, é essencial reconhecer que a democracia é o pilar mais importante para o desenvolvimento humano. A democracia proporciona o espaço necessário para que os direitos humanos sejam progressivamente implementados e permite a protecção das minorias. A democracia é a única forma de governação que empresta legitimação à vontade do povo e permite que os cidadãos escolham livremente os seus representantes eleitos para defenderem os seus interesses nos Parlamentos. Os Parlamentos que encarnam a democracia proporcionam um quadro para a responsabilização e para o exercício de mecanismos de controlo sobre o Governo. Embora os Parlamentos recebam o seu mandato do quadro democrático, uma democracia forte traduz-se logicamente num Parlamento robusto.
STATEMENT FROM THE SECRETARY GENERAL OF THE SADC-PF ON THE INTERNATIONAL DAY OF DEMOCRACY 15TH SEPTEMBER 2023
15 Set. 2023 Written by SADC Parliamentary ForumDear Colleagues/partners,
I have the immense contentment to release this Statement to the Forum’s Member Parliaments and partners in view of celebrating the International Day of Democracy 2023.
On this day, it is essential to recognise that democracy is the single most important pillar for human development. Democracy provides the necessary space for human rights to be progressively implemented and enables the protection of minorities. Democracy is the only form of governance which bestows credence to the will of the people and allows citizens to freely choose their elected representatives to advance their interests within parliaments. Parliaments which embody democracy then provide a framework for accountability and for checks and balances to be exercised on the Government of the day. Whilst Parliaments derive their mandate from the democratic framework, a strong democracy logically translates into a robust Parliament.

Dear Colleagues/Partners,

This is to recognise that the youth of Africa is ready to embrace the emerging challenges and opportunities that the region has to offer. Yet, the youth need the conducive policy and legal environment necessary to grow and evolve into the best version of themselves.
Caros Colegas/Parceiros,
É com bastante entusiasmo que publicamos esta primeira declaração conjunta aos parceiros na ocasião da celebração do Dia Internacional da Juventude neste 12 de Agosto de 2022.
Trata-se de reconhecer que a juventude da África está disposta a abraçar os desafios e as oportunidades emergentes que a região tem para oferecer. No entanto, a juventude precisa de um ambiente político e jurídico favorável, necessário para o seu crescimento e sua transformação na melhor versão de si própria.
