The Democracy Center Information

Through a combination of research and analysis, training and support, and active campaigning, the Democracy Center works internationally to strengthen struggles for social, economic and environmental justice. *Research and Analysis* Using solid, fact-based, work, we aim to unmask the sources of power that generate social and environmental injustice and to promote a deeper set of conversations about the structural causes of the manifold crises that the world currently faces. One of our major priorities is to deepen public understanding of how unbound corporate power drives a development model that undermines real democracy with devastating social, economic and environmental consequences. *Training and Support* Our print and online resources, as well as our workshops and webinars with activists and affected communities, focus on: - Providing strategic tools and resources to support grassroots struggles. - Deepening our collective understanding of the root causes of economic, social and environmental injustice and figuring out how to confront them. *Campaigning* Our campaigning work seeks to contribute to struggles for social and environmental justice in the South by bringing those fights to the seats of power in the North. Our positions as a bridge between North and South means that we can apply pressure in the North on those institutions and corporations most responsible for social, environmental and economic injustices.
