General Information

Farhat Hached Institute for Research and Democracy (FHIRD) is an independent non-profit international Tunisian NGO based in Tunis. It is an academic body of research that works at the both national and international levels in fields such as research, training, consultancy in issues of media, democracy and politics as well as democratic changes. In order to reach our goals, we are willing to work with different research and scientific bodies, governmental and non govermental organizations and associations that show similar interests and specialities according to the requirements of these domains. Our institute publishes research studies and reports, organises trainings, conferences and workshops that are open to experts and common people. The institute also organises and supervises an annual polls project as part of our attempt and contribution in facilitating the democratic process and helping in the establishment of democratic institutions. It is an initiative developed by a group of Tunisian young civil society activists, teachers and thinkers
