Strengthen institutions of democracy so that people's participation is increased in the running of a country. The institutions should enable the people to realise their aspirations. ii. Strengthen practices of democracy so that justice can be given to everyone and people have a way to realise their expectations. iii. Challenge takes different meanings and paths in different countries. However, there is need of reducing the control in the hands of powerful and rich people so that everyone gets a say.
