International IDEA's engagement in the third Summit for Democracy

International IDEA, in collaboration with the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development, Open Government Partnership, and the Community of Democracies, is an integral part of the Platform for Engagement with Civil Society (PEC). Together, the PEC organizations are supporting the government of the Republic of Korea to organize the second day of the Summit, the Cohorts, Civil Society and Youth Engagement Day.

As co-coordinator of the Global Democracy Coalition, International IDEA further organizes the Partners for Democracy Day 2024  on 19 March 2024 that provides a global platform for civil society and other democracy actors.

International IDEA will be contributing to activities throughout the three-day Summit.
