Learn best practices from other democracies
As authoritarianism spreads, democracies like ours can find strength by learning from one another and adapting best practices. This organization exists to equip citizens to adapt those lessons to today’s Canada. Read our study on the promise of Democratic Solidarity
-
Apply these practices to our democracy
Democratic societies embrace truth. Through the National Commission on Truth and Reconciliation and the Final Report on Missing and Disappeared Children, we have an opportunity to acknowledge it and the survival of other nations in this land.
Join the Remembering Project to support survivors as we collectively add to our knowledge of the truth.

Our Mission
