3 GLOBERNANCE Institute for Democratic Governance Introduction

Introduction This is the report, in which we present the activities of the Institute for Democratic Governance (Globernance), which was created in 2010 as an agent of Science and Technology of the Basque Network of Science, Technology and Innovation. It was created with the aim of carrying out top-level research in the field of humanities and social sciences. Though our research primarily envisages work in the inter- national sphere, we are also at the service of institutions that are clo- ser to us. Through its many research programs, publications and dis- semination activities, and through the many cooperation agreements signed to date, the Institute for Democratic Governance has, in spite of its youth, already become a space for reflection and the exchange of knowledge for researchers from all over the world. We wish to be- gin this report by expressing our gratitude to all those individuals and public and private institutions that support us. This is by no means the final report of an institution that has already fulfilled its task; it is merely the first step in our commitment to the development of science and research, where the values of democratic co-existence are key, and it is part of our greater aim to contribute to the renewal of the forms of government we choose to embrace.
