The International Constitution Center is Partner
with the "World Constitution Day" Team
Showcasing Constitutions around the Globe
An annual event wherein people engage together with ideas, action and education. Once a year, people come together across the world to celebrate these amazing documents and charters. With open houses, forums, meetings, lectures, blogs, consortium, show-and-tell, and networking events, World Constitution Day is a global celebration of one of the world’s greatest human inventions; a "constitution".
Generating excitement about Constitutions
Citizens, organizations and companies can support this international day by hosting their own event. This is a chance for members of the public to get together and dive into their own national constitution within the context of other national constitutions while meeting the people that share their interests.
Throughout the world people rely everyday on a written constitution for guidance in policy, business, manufacturing, tourism, aviation, science, engineering, life care, education, media, communication and in many more roles.
UN Center for Democratic Transitions
Center for Democratic Transitions
Confirming the recognition of the need for an International Constitution Center is the emergence of the United Nations’ Democracy Transition Center, also known as the Center for Democratic Transition. This center compliments those of the International Constitution Center, but functions differently. The International Center for Democratic Transition (ICDT) is based on the premise that democracies make safer, more stable and reliable neighbors and that such democracies are beneficial to a country’s own population. In joining the ICDT, participating democracies commit themselves to lending support to fragile democracies and encourages activity in non-democratic states. In March of 2005, CCD President Dick Rowson and Hungarian Ambassador Istvan Gyarmati co-chaired an international conference in Budapest at which a plan for a Centre was developed and approved. Strong demand for such an entity was in evidence, such that within a few short weeks, the Plan was presented and endorsed by the Third Community of Democracies Biennial Ministerial Conference, convened in Santiago, Chile. During this conference, it was announced that the Hungarian government would be providing the Centre with funds and office space to begin its valuable work.
On the Shoulders of Giants “The Constitution of the United States was not, like the fabled Goddess of Wisdom, the offspring of a single brain. It ought to be regarded as the work of many heads and many hands”
