Sweden has recently conducted research into the effects of Swedish and international democracy aid. It shows that, both international and Swedish democracy aid have a small but positive effect on the advancement of democracy globally.
This is very encouraging for an organization like NIMD that works on democracy strengthening. Therefore, our Learning and Innovation Advisor, dr Arlinda Rrustemi, decided to meet with the researcher, Miguel Niño-Zarazúa, and delve into his ground-breaking research. It offers very valuable insight into the effectiveness of democracy aid.
