About the World Forum for Democracy
The World Forum for Democracy is an annual gathering of policy-makers, academics, activists, youth representatives and democracy innovators, in the Council of Europe headquarters in
Strasbourg (France).
The Forum serves as a unique platform for political decision-makers and activists to debate solutions to key challenges for democracies worldwide. By identifying and analysing experimental initiatives and practices, the Forum highlights and encourages democracy innovations at the grassroots and their transfer on a systemic level in order to strengthen the foundations of democratic societies. The Forum thus contributes to the evolution of democracy towards more participatory and inclusive structures and institutions.
Organised on an annual basis, the programme of the Forum features inspirational talks by thought leaders. Analytical labs will challenge proposed new solutions and identify ideas worth
spreading. Moreover, the Forum will actively foster the creation of networks and communities of practice, serving as incubators for turning ideas into action.
The Forum contributes to the implementation of the Reykjavik Principles of Democracy adopted by the Heads of State and Government of Council of Europe member states at their Fourth
Summit in Reykjavik in May 2023.
The 2024 Forum: Democracy and Diversity
In a year during which around one half of the world’s population has been called to the polls, the 2024 edition of the World Forum for Democracy will address the critical threats posed by
disinformation and divisive political narratives around diversity, including in the context of election campaigns. The Forum will focus on how electoral processes may inadvertently
crystallise societal divides and provide fertile ground for populism to flourish. In light of the urgency of this challenge, the Forum will explore ways of raising understanding among citizens
of the risks posed by populism for their fundamental rights and freedoms.
DEADLINE FOR APPLICATIONS: 30 JUNE 2024, 23:59 CET
