Goals and activities

The Network Institute for Global Democratization is made up of a transnational network of 78 researchers and activists, who together strive to promote democratization.[2] This network works to strengthen an incipient global civil society and define an alternative globalization through cross-cultural dialogue and concrete proposals for reform. To this end, its practices include original critical research and policy analysis, as well as organizing workshops, seminars and conferences and consultancy work.
