Dearest friends
On this 15th September, We observe the
International day for Democracy
Democracy is a universal value based on the freely expressed
will of people to determine their own political, economic, social and cultural
systems and their full participation in all aspects of their lives.
While democracies share common features, there is no single
model of democracy.
Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon says Civil society is the
oxygen of democracy.
Civil society acts as a catalyst for social progress and
economic growth.
This is why the theme of this year’s International Day of
Democracy is "Space for Civil Society." It is a reminder to
Governments everywhere that the hallmark of successful and stable democracies
is the presence of a strong and freely operating civil society -- in which Government and
civil society work together for common goals for a better future, and at the
same time, civil society helps keep Government accountable.
Long live Democracy…Long Live Mauritius
Have a great day.
