The Democracy Initiative

Why?

The right to democracy is a fundamental human right. The right to elect your leader in free elections should be guaranteed everywhere, in every country and on every continent.

The Democracy Initiative works like this:

We draw attention to sites on the net working with democracy making sure people will find them. If enough persons read about the democracy problems in the world today there will soon be lots of people concerned about it. With a lot of people concerned, politicians will soon worry. With worried politicians there will soon be enough political will to make sure that we start getting elections even in the less developed contries.

Freedom to speak

In a democracy everyone has the freedom to speak. The people have the freedom to demonstrate and stand up for what they believe. For example In the Speakers Corner in London you have the possibility to say whatever is on your mind. The newspapers have the freedom to write what they want to write about without having to be afraid of being censored. Of course with this freedom comes the matter of being responsible for what you say or write.
