In their own words

“NIMD is an international non-governmental organization, which supports democracy. The organization was established in 2000 by seven political parties from across the Dutch political spectrum, with the aim of supporting emerging democracies through a multiparty approach.”

“With its global network of country offices and independent partners NIMD contributes to inclusive democracies by bringing politicians and society together in dialogue so that they can jointly formulate policies to improve their democratic system. We support political parties, individual politicians, and political institutions to bring democratic values into practice and enhance the overall political culture in their country. Given our mission to connect political parties and the people they represent, we increasingly target non-political actors in the political arena. Our work is centered around dialogue and trust building. Our intervention strategies are always aimed at bringing people together to collaborate.”
