Democracy Development Foundation

The Democracy Development Foundation (DDF), the spin-off of the Open Society Foundations, aims to contribute to the advancement of democracy, security, and human rights in Armenia. DDF efforts are centered around the vision of a country, where people live in dignity and enjoy peace, safety, freedoms, civic engagement, and social justice.

Registered in December 2022 as an independent, non-profit foundation, DDF works towards the above-mentioned mission with a strong commitment to open society values and ideals. DDF efforts are focused on supporting pro-democracy actors and creating partnerships based on shared values and expertise. In doing so, DDF empowers a vibrant community of civil society actors and exercises its convening power to cultivate robust alliances for effective local policy and international advocacy efforts.
