On the occasion of the Global Forum on Modern Direct Democracy held in Tunis from 14 to 17 May 2015, Democracy International held a general assembly on 16 May 2015. The event was the fourth general assembly in the history of Democracy International as a registered assocation. The board was re-elected. Also, participants (members and non-members alike) engaged in workshop sessions.

The board, which had been newly constituted at Democracy International's general assembly in Bratislava on 9 April 2014, was completely re-elected.

The members of Democracy International's board are:

  • Daniela Bozhinova from Bulgaria
  • Gerald Häfner, Germany
  • Bruno Kaufmann, Switzerland/ Sweden
  • Joe Mathews, USA
  • Erwin Mayer, Austria
  • Suresh Nautiyal, India
  • Arjen Nijeboer, the Netherlands
  • Rafael Pinero, Uruguay
  • Prof. Jung-OK Lee, South Korea
  • Daniel Schily, Germany

Also, Democracy International members confirmed the budget for 2015 that the Board and the Council had previously approved.

Following the formal part, the participants of the general assembly broke into four workshop sessions to discuss the future of Democracy International, engaging young people in the European project, building relationships with Tunisia and communicating Democracy International globally. Below you find a transscript of the outcomes of the workshop sessions.
