Independent Diplomat Inc
US non-profit organisation. Based in: United States. Active at least since 2008. Main sector: human rights and democracy.
Independent Diplomat (ID) is a non-profit diplomatic advisory group that strives to create more inclusive, just, effective and lasting peace processes and international agreements by building the diplomatic capacity of marginalized groups and democratic governments. Our work follows a simple premise: we help those most affected by crises and conflict to access the high-level political discussions about them. We work inside the diplomatic system to help these groups advocate for the legitimate interests of those they represent, leading to more just and sustainable outcomes. ID builds long-lasting, collaborative, and equitable relationships of trust with our partners.
