CSD
in Brief
The civil society and democratic development program is associated
with the emergence of the center, which was associated with the democratic
transformation and the release of the political diversity in the Kingdom.
The program is on the basis of the center representing one of the
civil society institutions in Jordan, despite it having specialized
features. It directs its major interest to democratic issues, which
are regarded as the key to political, economic and social development.
The program specifically directs its attention to study the state
of affairs and the developments of the Jordan civil society, and to
introduce its different groups and issues. It also attempts to contribute
to the enhancement of civil society organizations' ability to raise
its status and to strengthen its role in public life, to help protect
democratic development and the establishment of democratic methods
in the country's lifestyle at different levels. The program's activities
include organizing conferences, seminars and workshops, and to prepare
research papers and to issue books and reports in addition to the
"issues of civil society" periodical leaflet.
