This factsheet series brings together insights from the field to provide a simple overview of the different themes that are important for democratic governance. It is designed as a one-stop-shop for understanding the options available to policy-makers, donors and development practitioners when engaging in support.

The series is by no means a definitive guide to all of the options available to organisations wanting to support democratic governance but rather a first-port-of-call. How can an EU delegation support journalists and media actors? What options are available for strengthening a Parliament? How to reinforce the role of women in decision-making? What policies support local-level change? These are some of the questions you can find answers to in these pages. Each factsheet also contains links for further reading for more detailed information on a theme.
