Abstract

The author reports about the activities of PILDAT, an independent non-profit think tank dedicated to strengthening democracy and democratic institutions in Pakistan. There are three key areas of PILDAT activities. One is Parliamentary Strengthening, which is an area in which we have worked since 2001 in Pakistan, from which we have organised briefings and over 85 courses. Secondly, the organisation has also moved into the area of Parliamentary Performance Assessment and thirdly, since 2003, when democracy was restored in Pakistan, it has produced the Annual State of Democracy Report, which covers how democracy is progressing - or not progressing.
