DemocracyDrinks

What is it? 

#DemocracyDrinks is a series of networking events bringing together democracy advocates, thinkers and enthusiasts. It’s a great way of making new connections and catching up with people you know; testing ideas and planning actions; finding support and inspiration. 

#DemocracyDrinks was launched by Defend Democracy in Brussels in 2018. Since then, #DemocracyDrinks are being hosted around the world.  Our previous editions in The Hague have attracted a lively mix of people from NGOs, international institutions, think tanks, and national government, among others. 

What can you expect? 

By joining the Democracy Drinks, you can engage with leading experts through moderated conversations and interactive Q&A sessions on current topics related to democracy.  Finish the evening with networking drinks, where you can discuss the topic of the evening, connect and exchange insights with fellow attendees. 

Who is it for? 

Anyone working on or interested in defending values like democracy, rule of law, human rights…  

We hope to see you there!
