It was one of the first political parties in the country and played a significant role in the struggle for independence from British colonial rule. The BPP advocates for social democracy and aims to promote the interests of the people, particularly in areas like education, health, and economic development. The party has historically been a part of the opposition in Botswana's political landscape, competing against the ruling Botswana Democratic Party (BDP).
