Partners for Democracy Day

Partners for Democracy Day aims to provide a platform for civil society, international organizations, academic institutions, think tanks, philanthropic organizations and the private sector, that may not be part of the official Summit, but that want to make their voices heard in the Summit discussions and in the global democracy debate. Being held during the same week as the Summit for Democracy, will provide visibility for civil society and other voices and their efforts in support and protection of democracy worldwide, while also broadening and enriching Summit discussions to those issues and perspectives that the official Summit may not cover. Partners for Democracy Day can also provide a valuable opportunity to raise visibility for specific issues of concern to civil society and other stakeholders in the democracy space.
