I was delighted to get the opportunity to check out @WFD_Democracy's Garden of Democracy exhibit in @UKParliament's Portcullis House last week. A timely and important reminder that #democracy needs constant nurturing if it's to deliver on its promise. #StrengthenDemocracy

Democracy is good for people and our planet – but it is under threat globally. Starting this week those in @UKParliament's Portcullis House can learn about why we must strengthen democracy, and the UK’s role in doing so at our Garden of Democracy exhibition. #StrengthenDemocracy



Why should the global decline in #democracy worry us? And what can we do about it? This #InternationalDayofDemocracy, @WFD_Democracy governors @MariaMillerUK and @LSRPlaid make the case for renewed efforts to #StrengthenDemocracy 👉politicshome.com/thehouse/artic…

Democracy is good for people and our planet – but it is under threat. With action to strengthen democracy, we can counter authoritarianism, tackle global challenges, and solve the problems that matter to people. Find out more: wfd.org #StrengthenDemocracy
