Centre for Democracy and Development

The Centre for Democracy and Development (CDD) was established in the United Kingdom in 1997 out of the need to mobilise global opinion for democratic development, to provide an independent space to reflect critically on the challenges posed to the democratisation and development processes in West Africa, and to generate dialogue on alternative pathways that are universally relevant and context sensitive. Its activities started with a roundtable discussion organised in London on the democratic future of Nigeria (then under military dictatorship).
