The Digital Democracy Initiative (DDI) aims to help expand and protect inclusive democracy and civic space through improving the support infrastructure and ecosystem for pro-democratic local civil society and digital-driven civic action, strengthening the core and digital capacity of local civil society, and creating opportunities for local civil society groups to collectively test, learn, and share innovative ways to amplify and advocate for inclusive democratic spaces. The project focuses on supporting local civil society actors operating in restrictive contexts in Global South countries.
The Tifa Foundation is the regional partner responsible for implementing the DDI project in East and Southeast Asia over the next 12 months.

Their work supports the overall financial integrity and transparency of the project, contributing to effective resource management and accountability. Additionally, they coordinate closely with project teams and partners to maintain up-to-date financial documentation and provide necessary financial guidance.
