On September 19 and 20, the European Committee of the Regions hosted a two-day event to celebrate the International Day for Democracy, with support from the European Endowment for Democracy (EED), European Partnership for Democracy (EPD), International IDEA, the European Network of Political Foundations (ENoP), and Carnegie Europe.

The theme of the tenth edition of IDD Brussels was "A Year of Elections." The event explored the electoral landscape in Europe and beyond, assessing the current state of democracy worldwide. At this critical juncture, the conference provided a platform to discuss and shape the EU’s democracy agenda for the coming years. It brought together policymakers, politicians, activists, and independent journalists from around the globe to address the state of democracy, its challenges, and the opportunities that lie ahead. Special emphasis was placed on the roles of youth and women in these discussions, as part of the Women and Youth Democratic Engagement (WYDE) program.

Among the panelists, notable mentions include Dubravka Šuica, European Commission Vice-President for Democracy and Demography; Christian Leffler, former Deputy Secretary-General of the European External Action Service; Apostolos Tzitzikostas, First Vice-President of the European Committee of the Regions and Governor of Central Macedonia; Kevin Casas Zamora, Secretary General of International IDEA and Leopoldo López, Venezuelan opposition leader.

On day 2, September 20, a panel of 5 women addressed the discussion on Gender Equality and Authoritarianism. As gender disparities widen in countries with authoritarian regimes or restrictive political environments, women's political participation is particularly at risk. Women rights defenders and gender equality political advocates are developing strategies as they become the targets of authoritarian governments and far-right movements. Amidst the numerous elections happening in the world this year, the resilience of young women activists is coming to the fore. The panel included Japleen Pasricha (India), Sonia Gassemi (Algeria), Salma Al-Nims (Jordan), Viviane Ogou (Spain) and Rumbidzai Kandawasvika-Nhundu (International IDEA).

The Pact for the Future, set to be endorsed at the United Nations Summit of the Future on 22-23 September in New York, is a pivotal framework designed to address global challenges with a long-term vision extending beyond 2030. It includes two annexes: the Global Digital Compact and the Declaration for Future Generations, focusing on digital governance and the rights of future generations. The Pact’s five broad focus areas include: sustainable development; international peace and security; science and technology; youth and future generations, and transforming global governance. This comprehensive framework is critical as it proposes reforms to global institutions like the UN, aiming to tackle issues such as climate change and peace and security amid increasing geopolitical tensions.

However, one of the key global challenges missing from the Pact is the decline of democracy, a pressing issue that has significant implications for the other areas the Pact seeks to address. International IDEA’s Global State of Democracy Report 2024: Strengthening the Legitimacy of Elections in a Time of Radical Uncertainty highlights how democratic decline and rising authoritarianism are undermining political rights and civic space, which are fundamental for achieving the Pact’s goals on peace, security, and sustainable development.
