Center for Constitutional Democracy

The Center for Constitutional Democracy (CCD) studies and promotes constitutional democracy in countries marked by ethnic, religious, linguistic, and other divisions. Founded by David Williams, the center works primarily in Burma, with other projects in Liberia and Central Asia. The CCD brings together reform leaders in countries struggling for constitutional democracy and university scholars who have expertise in this area. Indiana Law students working with the CCD have had the opportunity to work on the first-ever constitutional commentary on Liberia's constitution, and to travel to Thailand for consultation with Burmese democratic reformers.
