On September 15, we mark the International Day of Democracy, established by the United Nations to promote and strengthen democratic values worldwide.

On this occasion, the Central Electoral Commission of the Republic of Moldova extends sincere congratulations to all citizens of the Republic of Moldova and urges reflection on the principles that underpin a democratic society: participation, freedom, equality, respect for human rights, responsibility, and civic engagement.

Democracy is built through the involvement of each of us. It means more than exercising the right to vote. It means informed and active citizens, open dialogue, respect for the diversity of opinions, and responsible participation in community life.

The democratic process is strengthened day by day through the contribution of every citizen, through respect for the values of the rule of law, and through the support of strong and transparent institutions. In this context, civic and electoral education, participation in decision-making processes, and the promotion of a culture of dialogue are essential elements for the development of a democratic and prosperous society.

On this significant day, the Central Electoral Commission reaffirms its commitment to contributing to the organization of fair, transparent, and inclusive electoral processes, as well as to promoting citizen participation in public life.

Happy International Day of Democracy!

Let us cherish and strengthen together the democratic values that unite us and contribute to the development of a future based on freedom, responsibility, and mutual respect.
