MODULE 1: Formation and structure
Ideological base, party constitution and organisational structure
The Palme AcademyThis first module looks at the fundamentals of a party constitution and deals with the basic structures and organisation of a political party. A party needs an ideology, constitutional frameworks and rules as well as a clear organisational structure. A party that is careless with these basic building blocks will find it difficult to function and to be effective and democratic.
