The International Day of Democracy provides an opportunity to review the state of democracy worldwide and promote democratic principles globally. This annual UN observance brings together governments, civil society organisations, and citizens to reflect on democratic institutions and explore ways to strengthen democratic participation.
The day serves as a platform for dialogue about democratic values, civic engagement, and protecting democratic institutions against growing polarization and misinformation. Through activities and discussions held globally, the International Day of Democracy emphasizes that democracy requires active citizen participation to thrive as a universal value supporting human rights and development.
