Misija, vizija i ciljevi

MISIJA

Misija programa jeste razvijanje kritičkog mišljenja i demokratskih principa odlučivanja, stvarajući kroz debatu novi demokratski model civilnog društva, imajući u vidu da ukidanje jednog totalitarnog političkog sistema ne znači naprosto čin uređenja drugih političkih institucija, nego drugačijih modela mišljenja koji moraju prožeti sve sfere života.

VIZIJA

Vizija i ciljevi CKD-a su, prije svega, edukativni i uključuju, ali nisu ograničeni na, njegovanje otvorenog društva kroz pomoć aktivnostima koje promoviraju slobodnu razmjenu ideja, toleranciju, kritičko mišljenje, regionalnu i međunarodnu suradnju. U izgradnji vizije i misije, CKD nastoji:

• Izvršavati, organizirati, koordinirati, podržavati i učestvovati u obrazovnim i drugim programima i aktivnostima koji su od javnog interesa, bez obzira da li su aktivnosti CKD-a ili drugih fizičkih i/ili pravnih lica ili pododjela koji: podržavaju ciljeve i misiju CKD-a, podržavaju razvoj otvorenog društva, demokracije, demokratskih vrijednosti, sloboda i ljudskih prava, unapređuju zajedničke ciljeve članica IDEA-e, WSDC-a, NVO Vijeća, Mreže pravde BiH i WIFI-a, a putem povećanja donatorskog potencijala za podizanje kredibiliteta i poboljšanja efikasnosti programa i aktivnosti koje organizira CKD.
• Izvršavati, organizirati, koordinirati, podržavati kao i učestvovati u programima i aktivnostima koji su, prema odluci Skupštine udruženja, konstruktivni i odgovarajući za širenje ciljeva CKD-a, i u suglasnosti sa zakonom i koji su društveno korisni.
• Pružiti finansijsku, materijalnu i drugu pomoć fizičkim licima i pravnim subjektima koji provode programe u skladu sa vizijom i ciljevima CKD-a, a kroz odobrene finansijske i projektne aktivnosti. 
• Ne propagirati negativne utjecaje na legislaciju.
• Ne učestvovati ili biti umiješan (uključujući objavljivanje izjava) u bilo koju političku kampanju za ili protiv bilo kojeg kandidata za javnu službu.
