Our Story
The Institute for Democratic Governance & Development IDEGD) was established in the year 2013 purposely to contribute to the "establishment of a just and free society" in Liberia that is democratic, prosperous, integrated and secure in the West African sub-region and beyond. Established at a time of growing public interest in the advancement of democratization and good governance in the hitherto authoritarian, turbulent, and underdeveloped polities of the West African sub-region, the founders of IDEGD committed themselves to work for the consolidation of democratic governance within and beyond the boundaries of Liberia Consequently, IDEGD was conceptualized to function as the leading center of excellence, delivering cutting edge services relevant to the empowerment of citizens and enhancement of their ability to sustain democratic governance and equitable development. To the founders of IDEGD, the impact of democratic governance on the transformation of the hitherto authoritarian and underdeveloped post-colonial African states, economies, and societies was clear. After several decades of repressive rule and state decline precipitated economic and social crises resulting in the underdevelopment of the continent, opportunities for the revitalization of the economy and society into a more prosperous, secure, equitable and peaceful life world had expanded. The emergent concept was that the promise of the new era could flourish best within the over-arching frame of a stable, modern, inclusive and resilient democracy. This was defined as one of the major challenges to peaceful and accelerated development of Africa
In response to this challenge, IDEGD seeks through first-class scientific research and analysis, policy dialogue and advocacy, and capacity building to expand the scientific knowledge base, enhance change management skills, and foster innovative partnerships that would enable state and non-state actors to successfully pursue economic, political and social development in African countries like Liberia Spurred by the emergent policy convergence and global consensus on the need to pursue political, economic, and social reforms simultaneously in contemporary Africa, IDEGD has poverty reduction, economic growth, democracy and good governance as its major focus of work.
