Democracy Reporting International

Democracy Reporting International is a not-for-profit organisation based in Berlin, free of any political, religious, partisan, or national affiliation. We are both a think tank, seeking solutions to complex political transitions, and a project partner to national decision makers and citizens who want to drive change in their countries. We focus on key policy areas where the state is accountable to its citizens: constitutions, elections, and parliaments. We work closely with civil society, which has a unique mandate to provide the nexus between the state and organised public interests. We target our analysis and support at key junctures in legislative and political processes, when we can make a difference. Our vision is a world of informed citizens who use their power to elect governments, who are involved in politics, who insist that governments serve their interests, and who act in the defence of open, accountable, and representative democracy - a world of citizens, not subjects.
