On the way to Hubli as part of the @Tibparliament program. Finished this report by @HardyMerriman @civilresistance which highlights how civil resistance is still relevant in a world of 'polycrisis' where there seems to be resurgence of autocracies.

Interesting interview from our colleagues at @DIPDtweets! Read on for @HardyMerriman's thoughts on which new methods could help in turning the tide on Democratic recession.

Democracy is backsliding, but nonviolent social movements could be the answer, as they have proven to create real democratic change. President of @civilresistance, @HardyMerriman, gives a new take on how to rebuild democracy: dipd.dk/viden/samfunds…

The type of support ranges from funding, sanctions & training, to coordination of international supporters, diaspora enablement and beyond. Successful support depends on context, and activists are the ones who know their context best. -@HardyMerriman @ActionAidDK #peoplepower

"From Crisis to Opportunity: A Theory of Change." ICNC @HardyMerriman: The systems/ processes that form the day-to-day context in which funders & movement allies operate were not designed for with movements in mind. This mindset is being applied over that context.

Valuable contribution to the available literature on #nonviolence. Congratulations @HardyMerriman ! @civilresistance

The world confronts three interrelated crises of rising authoritarianism, climate change, and violent conflict. Popular nonviolent movements have an essential role to play in addressing each of them. My essay for the Copenhagen People Power Conference: nonviolent-conflict.org/wp-content/upl…
