Modern times demand a transformation from male dominated politics to political systems with equal gender participation: from violence and corruption to peace and fairness: and from ineffectual governance to quality representation of the people. Transformative politics brings changes by deconstructing traditional politics and rebuilding a fairer system. It is used for the people by the people, not, as is the case in traditional politics, by people over people.
Transformative politics emphasizes the use of power to create positive change, develop people and enable them to participate through structures and processes which priorities disadvantaged sectors. It is development oriented, issue-based and gender responsive. Transformative politics seeks economic, social and political equity for women and men, and among all sectors of society, in the context of building a society that is just, humane, and promotes a sustainable way of life.
