The International Democrat Union (IDU) is an international grouping of conservative, nationalist, classical liberal, anti-Communist and some Christian democratic political parties.
Formed in 1983, the IDU provides a forum in which political parties holding similar beliefs can come together and exchange views on matters of policy and organizational interest, in order that they might act cooperatively, establish contacts, and present a unified voice toward the promotion of centre-right policies across the globe. The group was founded by several prominent heads of state and government, including Prime Minister of the United Kingdom Margaret Thatcher, President of the United States George H.W. Bush [1] (though not elected President until 1988), Chancellor of Germany Helmut Kohl and then-Mayor of Paris Jacques Chirac.
At present, the organization, headquartered in Oslo, Norway, and comprising 45 full or associate members, is chaired by John Howard, Prime Minister of Australia from 1996 to 2007.
The IDU is subdivided in several regional sections—the Democrat Union of Africa, Unión de Partidos Latinoamericanos (UPLA), Asia Pacific Democrat Union, Caribbean Democrat Union and European Democrat Union —in addition to the International Young Democrat Union and International Women's Democrat Union.
