NIGD&rsquo;s work is based on the conviction that globalization as coming-together-of-humanity must be based on cross-cultural dialogue concerning both philosophical fundamentals and concrete reform proposals. NIGD projects are usually joint endeavours with a number of partners from the global south.<\/p>\n<p>NIGD operates from Helsinki, Finland, and Lima, Peru. NIGD was founded in Helsinki in 1997, according to the Finnish law on public associations. It emerged from the Finnish follow-up process (1995-1997) to the UN Secretary-General\u2019s annual reports on democratization. In 1998 &#8211; 2002, NIGD received annual funding from the Nottingham Trent University, UK, which has also been the site for many of NIGD&rsquo;s activities. In addition, and since 2002, NIGD&rsquo;s activities have been funded projectwise.<\/p>\n<p>NIGD conducts research, publishes Discussion and Working Papers and organises workshops, seminars, and conferences. Consultancy work is also among NIGD&rsquo;s activities.<\/p>\n<p>NIGD has been involved in transnational campaigns, for instance for a currency transactions tax and, more generally, for global democratization. NIGD aims at strengthening global civil society and is also a founding member of the International Council of the World Social Forum.<\/p>\n<p>See them at the WSF 2006 in Bamako, Caracas and Karachi.<\/p>\n<p>See the rest on their site by above link.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NIGD aims at promoting global democratization by producing and developing emancipatory knowledge for democratic movements, organizations and states.
