Mission & Goals
Club de Madrid is a global network of democratic former Presidents and Prime ministers with a concrete mission: free from the constraints of office, and on a pro bono basis, our members offer today’s leaders their independent and non-partisan voices, experience and convening power, for supporting good governance and fostering a democracy that delivers results for everybody. Club de Madrid works with several experts and like minded institutions who, as project partners, provide specific advice on a wide range of issues. Through third party collaborations we also promote the mission and initiatives of other organizations in support of shared goals.
