Democratic institutions

Through activities in this program area, we contribute to the construction of legal state based on integrity. Our goal is to build independent institutions that guarantee democracy, i.e. the balance between branches of government and fair election process. We advocate policies and mechanisms that guarantee democratic control of institutions and the responsibility of all participants in public life.

We are committed to the construction and preservation of democratic institutions based on responsibilities, impartiality, independence and openness. We fight for the public sector in which the public interest will have primacy over private. We contribute to the development of an active, dynamic and credible civil society based on the values of Western democracies.
