Forum for Democracy (Dutch: Forum voor Democratie [ˈfoː.rʏm voːr ˌdeː.moː.kraːˈ(t)si]; FvD) is a far-right[12][13][20] political party in the Netherlands, founded as a think tank by Thierry Baudet and Henk Otten in 2016. The party first participated in elections in the 2017 general election, winning two seats in the House of Representatives.

At the time of its conception, the FVD was considered a conservative liberal and a eurosceptic movement positioned on the right-wing of the political spectrum;[9][21][22][23][24] however, after several founding members split from the party, it has been described as adopting more radical policies and messages.[25][26][27]
