⚡ We’re still buzzing from #InternationalDemocracyDay
🎙️ Throwback to lightning talks, bold debates, and over 400 voices from around the world who came together to answer one big question: How do we protect and reinvent democracy in a time of crisis?
#EESCPartnership @eesc.bsky.social 🤝 @internationalidea.bsky.social
At #IDDBrussels, we debated democracy in an age of insecurity:

⭐ Gary Klaukka, Executive Director at the European Network of Political Foundations, closes the 11th edition of #IDDBrussels!
Thank you to all the participants for a great and insightful #InternationalDemocracyDay, and see you next year!
🗣️Our social contracts are changing in ways we can't ignore. Global challenges and structural forces like globalisation are shaping societies. But inequalities and uncertainty are rising, putting a lot of pressure.

On #InternationalDemocracyDay, we celebrate education’s role in shaping engaged citizens. Dean Pedro Noguera reminds us: “Education is the foundation for democracy.”

Our democracy depends on our freedom to vote and have our voices heard on the issues that matter most.
But this #InternationalDemocracyDay, MAGA politicians like Bryan Steil are threatening our fundamental right to safely and securely cast a ballot by mail.
📲 Take action!
Today is #InternationalDemocracyDay, and what better way to celebrate than to call all your family and friends to make plans for the next #NoKings event on October 18th! Visit nokings.org to find peaceful protest near you. ❌👑

On #InternationalDemocracyDay we reflect on threats to human rights, the rule of law, and people’s ability to participate – in political life, in elections, and in their communities.
We must all come together to defend these rights + support democratic principles.

Reminder - democracy and human rights go hand in hand. Person in a gray hoodie raising their fist during a protest with a megaphone nearby and a sign in the background.
In a democracy, respecting freedoms and #HumanRights means everyone has a voice and can hold leaders accountable.
When we ensure that every voice is heard and every right is safeguarded, we build a stronger, fairer society for all.
