Democracy Drinks: The Role of Whistleblowing

#DemocracyDrinks brings together democracy advocates, thinkers and enthusiasts at informal networking events. It is a great way of making new contacts and catching up with people you know; for testing ideas and planning actions; for moral support and inspiration. Feel free to invite friends and colleagues that work on or are interested in defending values like democracy, rule of law, human rights… Come along and you will be made welcome.

The Hague Humanity Hub is pleased to be organizing the next edition of #DemocracyDrinks with a focus on the role of whistleblowing on 15 September 2022. This event series is a collaboration between the Netherlands Helsinki Committee (NHC)  and the Netherlands Institute for Multiparty Democracy (NIMD) and The Hague Humanity Hub.   

In addition to the informal networking at the core of #DemocracyDrinks, we will also hear from Mark Worth, Executive Director at Whistleblowing International and Executive Director at the European Center for Whistleblower Rights.  

#DemocracyDrinks were launched in 2018 by Defend Democracy Executive Director Alice Stollmeyer. Over time, #DemocracyDrinks have expanded their reach and have been organized in Aarhus, Berlin, Brussels, Budapest, Copenhagen, Kathmandu, Montreal, The Hague and Washington DC, and soon also in other cities. The events attract a lively mixture of people from NGOs, international institutions, think tanks, national governments and representations, academia, public affairs consultancies, social businesses and other active citizens.
