Democracy and international development require the participation of citizens, analysts, and policymakers from all walks of life. The European Democracy Hub—a new platform for research-based discussion on European democracy support, programming, and policy—seeks to engage stakeholders and offer solutions to democratic challenges.

To mark the launch of the European Democracy Hub, join a conversation with European Commissioner for International Partnerships Jutta Urpilainen and Ken Godfrey.

The conversation will be followed by a panel debate with Julia Leininger and Staffan I. Lindberg on the need for more evidence-based democracy support as a critical prerequisite for and contributor to sustainable development. Richard Youngs will moderate.

This event is co-organized by Carnegie Europe and the European Partnership for Democracy.
