Listed are links to organizations and agencies involved in the assistance of democratic development. Also included are sources of information related to the evaluation of democratice performance and elections.

Our goal is to provide sources of information that will aid both policy-makers and researchers in the understanding of democratic performance, and to be a resource for the dissemination of that information. We welcome any suggestions that would enable us to further our progress towards that goal.

If you would like to link to our site, please contact us at cdp@bingamton.edu.
