The document provides strategic direction and serves as an inspiring source to guide decisions and initiatives with a view to consolidating a strong democracy.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>See the six pillars below:<\/strong><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Accountability for crimes against democracy is not just a legal obligation, but a civilizational commitment that we must embrace. In doing so, we not only guarantee that past transgressions have their proper legal outcome, but we also pave the way for a future where democracy can flourish and grow stronger through the challenges we will face.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The impartiality and loyalty of these forces are essential pillars for democratic stability, and their political misuse represents a significant threat to the integrity of the Democratic Rule of Law. The transformation of the security forces of state institutions into politically aligned organizations creates a dangerous and volatile environment for democracy.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The combination of technical improvements, transparency and active participation by civil society can contribute significantly to the defense and strengthening of the election process in Brazil, by combating disinformation and guaranteeing the legitimacy of the election process.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The preservation of the Democratic Rule of Law requires not only the defense of formal institutions, but also the promotion of a robust and informed public sphere that is capable of resisting disinformation and ensuring the continuity of a healthy democratic dialogue.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since 1988, civil society has transformed its methods of mobilization, organization and communication, as well as its strategies to pressure the State. Similarly, new forms of participation are likely to emerge, particularly in light of a scenario in which certain sectors of society perceive themselves to be marginalized and excluded from the decision-making process.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is important for the Brazilian State to promote, at all educational levels, a broad and permanent support for citizenship and media education, with the aim of cultivating citizens who actively engage in democracy, encouraging reflective thinking and the ability to discern true information from disinformation so everyone can understand the importance of defending and improving democracy.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><div class=\"tts__custom-position_bottom_fixed\" ><\/div>","excerpt":"<p>The Pact for Democracy launched on Monday, January 8, an agenda structured around six key pillars for the protection of democracy, the strengthening o&#8230;<\/p>\n","author":26,"featured_media":38508,"parent":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0},"categories":[19],"tags":[],"tema":[12278],"class_list":["post-38542","noticia","type-noticia","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-glance","tema-democracy-and-human-rights-movement"],"acf":{"subtitle-pt":"Led by a coalition formed by more than 200 civil society organizations, the Make Democracy Strong campaign consists of six key fronts;
