NEW from CEPPS & our partner D-ARCH: While the number of liberal democracies continues to plummet, this newest research takes an extraordinary deep dive into the puzzling trend driving more and more nations towards autocracy. Read the latest findings here: bit.ly/482sFf9
I just want to make a few things clear: The Holocaust happened. Hitler was a demonic figure. And instead of giving it a platform, our political leaders should be calling out and rejecting antisemitism wherever it hides. Silence is complicity.
PM Viktor Orbán has systematically eroded Hungarian democracy and is Putin’s only friend in the European Union and NATO. He doesn’t belong in any American political forum. In a @dallasnews op-ed, @EvelynNFarkas condemned his appearance in Dallas. mccaininstitute.org/resources/in-t…
The @cepps ‘Closing Space Barometer’ is intended to assist practitioners in assessing, anticipating, and responding to dynamics of democratic erosion based on @vdeminstitute data. As autocrats test democratic resilience worldwide, this tool is pivotal. bit.ly/3i4yNdR
Today CEPPS marks Int'l Transgender Day of Visibility. Democracy wins when everyone is afforded meaningful participation. We stand with all of our partners working around the world towards equality and fostering dignity, equity & inclusion for all. #TDOV
