Donations and Democracy – website launch

The website of Donations and Democracy was just launched today. Donations and Democracy is an initiative that aims to uncover the connection between foreign companies and U.S. Congress members who voted against certifying the results of the 2020 U.S. presidential election.

This should be of interest to anyone who cares about democracy, human rights and the rule of law. I am honoured to be on the International Advisory Network.

The first country briefing, on Sweden, was also published today.

Please share the information widely and sign up to receive future country briefings.

About Me

My name is Nadia Bernaz and I am Associate Professor of Law at Wageningen University in the Netherlands. My area of research is business and human rights. I look at how corporations and businesspeople are held accountable for their human rights impact through international, domestic and transnational processes.
