About terrorism.openDemocracy

Our aim is to encourage global dialogue about how the threat from terrorism can be confronted through democratic means.

terrorism.openDemocracy (toD) is one of the long-term products of the International Summit on Democracy, Terrorism and Security sponsored by the Club de Madrid in March 2005. Its outcome, the Madrid Agenda, was a first attempt to formulate a set of principles based on the conclusions that were reached in more than one hundred panel and working group sessions.

To this end the Club de Madrid and openDemocracy created this website, specifically dedicated to continuing the Madrid dialogue. Initially housed at www.Madrid11.net, toD publishes hard-hitting content - ranging from our daily security briefings to more probing news analysis, opinion and debates - related to the site's themes of democracy, terrorism and security. toD will serve as a major resource and forum, allowing users to find information, educate themselves, and engage in constructive and - if necessary - controversial debate.
