Democracy is struggling in many countries, with progress on the UN’s sustainable development goals stalling or reversing. This erodes citizens’ trust in democratic institutions, making them vulnerable to populist and authoritarian regimes.

For parliaments, this backsliding is a serious threat. Eroded democratic norms weaken their ability to provide oversight, represent citizens, and legislate effectively. This harms socioeconomic development and deepens mistrust in a cycle of failure.

The global parliamentary community must act to strengthen parliaments and restore trust. The Common Principles for Support to Parliaments, a proven framework for over a decade, offers guidance for effective parliamentary development. This brochure highlights their impact but emphasizes the urgency of intensifying efforts to support and protect democratic institutions, ensuring they deliver for their people.
