National Consortia

MEDem national consortia

Within the framework of MEDem, individual countries’ interests, and research contexts are being considered through National Consortia, organised by National Coordinators who lead these national liaisons. These country experts, possessing expertise across fields like political science and communication science, hold a vital role in identifying the national academic stakeholders. Working within their dedicated National Consortia, they cultivate awareness, gather support for the MEDem initiative, and pinpoint distinct research needs specific to their country. These combined efforts synergistically propel the forefront of Democracy Research.
