Policy is inextricably linked to politics, so political parties will become, sooner or later, involved in any given policy reform. Due to their partisan nature and the confrontational dynamics that the electoral process imposes on them, their participation in policy dialogue processes is always very sensitive, as they very often lack the incentives to reach a compromise that may benefit their adversaries. In other words, in most cases, their engagement in dialogue is informed by electoral calculations and the kind of power games that can seriously jeopardize the trust dynamics championed by INSPIRED.
