Who We AreThe International Republican Institute (IRI) is an organization dedicated to advancing democracy worldwide. IRI conducts programs outside the United States to promote democracy and strengthen free markets and the rule of law. The programs are tailored to the needs of pro-democracy activists in over 30 countries . By aiding emerging democracies, IRI plays a valuable role in helping bring greater stability to the world. Stable democracies not only further the cause of peace, but also enhance American opportunities for business investment and trade. In Russia, IRI conducts programming that assists pro-democracy activists in the organization of political parties, campaign management as well as specialized programs for women, youth, and NGO development.
IRI is not part of the Republican Party of the United States. Its programs are nonpartisan and adhere to fundamental American principles such as individual liberty, the rule of law, and the entrepreneurial spirit that fosters economic development.
