On 15 september 2011 NIMD celebrates the 4th International Day of Democracy. This day was declared by the UN to provide an opportunity to review the state of democracy in the world.

NIMD sees this day as a way to festively inform people about our work and to create awareness on the use of democracy around the world. Together with the European Partnership for Democracy (EPD), The House of Democracy and Rule of Law and Netwerk Democratie, NIMD is organising a 24 hour programme filled with inspiring events with national and international guests.

Visit this night and day in The Hague to see, feel, hear and speak of national and international democracy. Read more about the programme in Dutch on www.democratiedag.nl.
