The
#Commonwealth
comprises 56 countries working together for development, democracy and peace. We are a voice for small states and a champion for young people.
It's been 30 years since the 1st democratic elections in South Africa. In 2024 over 60 countries will go to the polls, a third of these Commonwealth countries.
Our work to promote democracy, peace, human rights & the rule of law is as relevant as ever.
