De laatste jaren brengt elke dagelijkse editie van het nieuws een nieuw verhaal over de democratie die onder vuur ligt. Vandaag zeggen we dat het genoeg is.<\/p>\n

NIMD maakt deel uit van de SPREEK! Campagne<\/a>. Lopend tussen de 16th<\/sup> en 18th<\/sup> van november protesteert de campagne tegen de bedreigingen en moorden op mensen die opkomen voor hun burgerrechten. Vandaag zullen, samen met verschillende andere organisaties in Nederland en over de hele wereld, onze sociale media en websites \"op zwart gaan\". We zijn solidair met burgerbewegingen en NGO's om ervoor te zorgen dat de vrijheden en kansen die de democratie biedt niet alleen blijven bestaan, maar ook worden gevierd.<\/p>\n

Overal ter wereld krimpt de ruimte voor democratie en vrije meningsuiting. Ontwikkelingsdemocratie\u00ebn vertonen tekenen van terugval naar autoritarisme. De internationale rechtsorde en verantwoordingsplicht lijken in gevaar. De Economist Intelligence Unit meldt<\/a> een daling van de democratie-index voor 89 landen, terwijl slechts 27 landen een verbetering zagen. De democratie ligt onder vuur en het is niet zeker wat er nu gaat gebeuren.<\/p>\n

De mogelijkheid voor burgers om hun stem te laten horen moet beschermd worden, voor nu en voor toekomstige generaties. Journalisten moeten hun werk kunnen doen zonder bedreigingen van geweld of gevangenisstraf<\/a>. Burgers moeten politieke partijen kunnen oprichten en op straat kunnen protesteren zonder bang te hoeven zijn voor een gewelddadig overheidsoptreden<\/a>. Anticorruptiewerkers moeten de vrije hand krijgen om leiders te onderzoeken, in plaats van een klap te krijgen. wegversperring na wegversperring<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Onze recente #democratieis campagne<\/a> wil de waarde van democratie over de hele wereld onder de aandacht brengen.<\/em><\/p>\n

Daarom werkt NIMD het hele jaar door aan het ondersteunen van de democratie, overal waar deze voet aan de grond probeert te krijgen. Burgerlijke en politieke vrijheden moeten worden gegarandeerd en we steunen partijen, instellingen en actoren die ervoor willen zorgen dat deze rechten nooit worden geschonden.<\/p>\n

Via ons strategisch partnerschap met het Nederlandse ministerie van Buitenlandse Zaken faciliteren we een inclusieve dialoog om vertrouwen tussen politieke partijen op te bouwen. We bevorderen de betrokkenheid van burgers en maatschappelijke organisaties bij het parlementaire proces om het bestuur open te stellen voor het volk. We steunen vrouwen, jongeren en minderheden in hun strijd voor gelijke vertegenwoordiging. Want als we de inkrimping van de democratische ruimte door laten gaan, zullen de generaties na ons ons dat nooit vergeven.<\/p>\n

Sluit je vandaag bij ons aan en SPREEK! voor de verdediging van je democratische rechten!<\/p>\n
