|
Promoting democratic development through understanding of the American political system and citizens' committment to representative democracy.
|
The Institute for Representative Government (IRG) was established in 1988 by a group of former Members of Congress as an independent, bipartisan, non-profit organization to provide high level, professional exchange programs for parliamentarians from developing or newly-established democracies. With this vision, legislators from emerging democracies could come to the United States, learn how government operates on the national and state levels, and interact with current and former lawmakers. More... Since its inception, the IRG program has involved more than 70 visitations and brought to the U.S. more than 630 foreign parliamentarians.
