We envision a world made up of inclusive democracies and thriving communities that honor the dignity, wellbeing, and potential of every life.
Our unique multidisciplinary approach bridges effective practices from venture philanthropy, network-building, and think tanks to build a transnational ecosystem that fuels pro-democracy civil society through:
1. Accelerating the pace of innovation by local and national pro-democracy organizations and efforts
2. Strengthening the pro-democracy field’s intelligence and foresight capability through research, sensemaking, and knowledge transfer of tactics between countries
3. Building and deepening solidarity among democracy champions, across geographies and strategies
4. Shaping a positive inclusive democracy narrative that inspires and unlocks the imagination of people across the globe
We operationalize our work through complementary impact initiatives:
