Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic
Fundación Federalista (FF) promotes federalism in the Dominican Republic and supports human rights throughout the world. In order to preserve and promote cultural diversity, FF proposes a global democracy to establish a Latin American economic community. The Fundación's main goal is to support the creation of a federal system in the Dominican Republic that supports “Unity in Diversity.”
Fundación Federalista runs activities and programs to promote the social, educational and cultural welfare of the community. Members conduct research, give seminars and host workshops. Fundación Federalista has members throughout the Dominican Republic.
Currently their projects focus on:
Federalism
In the effort to bring federalism to the Dominican Republic, members have conducted many activities such as workshops, presentations, conferences, conservatories and study sessions in conjunction with the Independent University of Santo Domingo, the National Institute of Development and Investigation of Social Services, the Dominican Literacy Foundation and the Alternative Community Foundation.
The International Criminal Court
Since the inception of the International Criminal Court, Fundación Federalista has been promoting it through the Dominican Coalition for the International Criminal Court (CODACPI). This coalition directs and coordinates many of the activities concerning the ICC that occur in the Dominican Republic. The Dominican Coalition is working to strengthen their relationship with local officials in order to push for ratification.
Environment
Fundación Federalista is working with the Lawyers Institute for Environmental Protection and the Foundation for the Enrichment of Human Values and Ecology to establish and implement new environmental standards in the Dominican Republic.
Democracy
Fundación Federalista and the National Foundation for Democracy have a cooperation agreement to run a series of talks, conferences, meetings, courses and discussions under the theme of “Federalism and Democracy in a Globalized World.”
