This glossary is part of NDI’s growing library of publications that form the basis for the Institute’s efforts to create a new and precise lexicon to convey the concepts central to democracy and governance. Putting some of these principles into practice, the glossary was developed through a consultative process with NDI’s staff in Lebanon, other field offices throughout the Middle East as well as the Institute’s citizen participation team. Special thanks also to NDI’s civic partners in the Citizen Lebanon program, who served as the inspiration for this project and also offered valuable feedback throughout the process of development.
