The Democracy & Culture Foundation
The Democracy & Culture Foundation was founded in 2019. The Foundation's mission is to help democracy evolve by empowering society through citizen engagement and better governance. We aim to become the leading global platform for dialogue and solution-oriented activities concerning the evolution of democracy and culture. Two of its major events, the Athens Democracy Forum in association with The New York Times, and Art for Tomorrow, are held annually and designed to convene, connect and foster collaboration between prominent and emerging voices for both democracy and culture. The Foundation and its partners also run worldwide initiatives including Teens for Democracy, Reimagining the Building Blocks of Democracy, the Climate Hub and Digital Tool Kit.
