Who are ISA’s Institutional Partners?
ISA’s Institutional Partners are organizations that believe in ISA’s Advocacy, and that support ISA through whatever means they can provide. Currently, ISA has both local and international Institutional Partners supporting its advocacy. It is for this reason that ISA devotes a page of its website specifically for them. Indeed, it is through their cooperation that ISA is able to create ripples in both national and local governance.
