On the home page, there is a section on Election 2011 (see under notices), which includes an article by Anna Mushi of the Tanzania Gender Networking Programme on quota systems in Tanzania, as well as links to the Claiming our Future Petition to create a more equal politics; the analysis of party manifestos by the Equality and Rights Alliance has prepared analyses of the commitments and a submission by Dóchas, the umbrella organisation of development agencies, to the political parties in relation to overseas development and humanitarian assistance.
