Who We Are
The Collaboration for Research on Democracy (CORD) is a global research network that brings together researchers and practitioners from around the world to explore the ways that citizen-centric strategies for development have the potential to deepen democracy and secure rights for poor and marginalized groups from all sections of the world.
