A UN Special Rapporteur on Democracy #UNRoD is seen as a potential way to help counter democratic decline & put a spotlight on #democracy as a human right. Experts gathered last week to discuss the proposal. Here's a report. #UDHR75 https://www.democracywithoutborders.org/26165/

An expert round table yesterday discussed the proposal of creating the mandate of a UN Special Rapporteur on #Democracy. We co-hosted the event with the Community of Democracies, Asia Democracy Network, Latin American and Caribbean Network for Democracy, and Forum 2000. Many thanks to all speakers & participants.
