Michael Coppedge, a political science professor at Notre Dame and one of the leaders of an international research project called Varieties of Democracy, acknowledges that defining and measuring democracy is no a simple task. But through the V-Dem project, scientists, policymakers, journalists, and even individual citizens can now explore online seven key democratic principles and literally millions of related data points that together illustrate how democracies work—and don't.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
