Philippine Democratic Audit Forum Series kicks off

摘要

How democratic is the Philippines at present? The Philippine Social Science Council (PSSC) and Participatory Research Organization of Communities and Education towards Struggle for Self-reliance (PROCESS) in partnership with the Ateneo de Manila University's Institute of Philippine Culture, La Salle Institute of Governance, UP Law Center's Institute of Human Rights and UST Graduate Law Association sought to address this question by conducting a Philippine Democratic Audit Forum Series from September 2005 to February 2006. The objective of the forum series was to provide a rapid assessment of the state of Philippine democracy by bringing together recent study findings and existing indicators on different dimensions of democratic practice.
