In 2020 bracht de COVID-19 pandemie de wereld tot stilstand. Het was een moeilijk jaar - een jaar dat al onze levens diep heeft be\u00efnvloed.<\/p>\n

Het was ook een jaar waarin we moesten groeien en leren. Bij NIMD moesten we bijvoorbeeld nieuwe manieren van werken vinden, verbonden blijven als netwerk en politieke actoren en burgers bij elkaar blijven brengen in een wereld waar de kans om elkaar persoonlijk te ontmoeten maar al te zeldzaam is.<\/p>\n

Hier zijn enkele lessen die we in 2020 hebben geleerd:<\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

1. Inclusieve democratie is nu belangrijker dan ooit.<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Respect voor elk individu, voor mensenrechten en voor democratie mogen niet opzij worden geschoven in de wereldwijde strijd tegen COVID-19. Het is de sleutel tot de oplossing. Het is de sleutel tot de oplossing.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Begin vorig jaar werd het ons duidelijk dat het Coronavirus de ongelijkheid aanwakkerde, de verschillen vergrootte en sommige leiders een voorwendsel verschafte om de mensenrechten aan te tasten. Maar we zagen ook een kans voor verandering: de kans om te laten zien dat inclusieve democratie en open dialoog kunnen leiden tot gezamenlijk gesteund beleid om de verspreiding van het virus tegen te gaan en sociale spanningen te voorkomen.<\/p>\n

Daarom heeft NIMD's Executive Director, Thijs Berman, samen met NIMD Colombia, het Nederlands Helsinki Comit\u00e9, Akina Mama wa Afrika en het Gor\u00e9e Instituut de krachten gebundeld om een verklaring<\/a> en korte video over het cruciale belang van democratie in de strijd tegen het Coronavirus en daarbuiten.<\/p>\n

2. Veerkracht, flexibiliteit en innovatie staan centraal in ons werk.<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Terwijl we het belang van ons werk ter ondersteuning van inclusieve democratie zagen groeien, werden we ons ook steeds meer bewust van onze veerkracht als netwerk.<\/p>\n

Overal ter wereld pasten NIMD-kantoren en partners hun werk aan de nieuwe context aan. Van ervoor zorgen dat burgers toezicht blijven houden in Kenia<\/a>om mensen te voorzien van advies en begeleiding bij het herkennen van nepnieuws over het Coronavirus<\/a> in El Salvador; op onze nieuwe en innovatief DemoLab in Colombia<\/a>die het stadsbestuur van Bogota helpt om de transparantie te vergroten en burgers te betrekken bij de beleidsvorming.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\"DemoLab: Een ruimte om van Bogota een meer open en democratische stad te maken.\"<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Bij NIMD doen we het voor de lange termijn. We weten dat de impact van de COVID-19 pandemie (die we hebben beschreven in dit document<\/a>) zullen verstrekkend en langdurig zijn. We zullen ons blijven aanpassen en reageren op deze nieuwe realiteiten, en we voelen ons meer dan ooit toegerust om dat te doen.<\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

3. Deel uitmaken van een netwerk betekent voortdurend van elkaar leren.<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Een van de belangrijkste redenen waarom we de nieuwe uitdagingen het hoofd hebben kunnen bieden, is de rijkdom aan expertise en kennis binnen het NIMD-netwerk. In meer dan 20 landen hebben onze collega's en partners van elkaar kunnen leren en ervaringen kunnen uitwisselen. Met reisbeperkingen in 2020 hebben we nieuwe manieren onderzocht om online verbonden te blijven en de mogelijkheden binnen ons netwerk te benutten. Onze kantoren en partners manieren onderzocht om de dialoogactiviteiten online voort te zetten<\/a>Ze konden hun observaties delen binnen het netwerk, zodat anderen konden leren van hun onderzoek en beslissingen.<\/p>\n
