Direct Democracy Now! (Greek: Άμεση Δημοκρατία Τώρα! Amesi Dimokratia Tora!), also known as True Democracy Now! (Greek: Πραγματική Δημοκρατία Τώρα! and in SpanishasDemocracia Real Ya Grecia)[1] is a Greek grassroots NGO[2] that was actively involved in the 2011 Greek protests. Inspired by the Spanish Democracia Real Ya movement, Direct Democracy Now! co-ordinated demonstrations throughout Greece and published the proceedings of the people's assemblies at the central demonstration at Syntagma Square.

The movement is one of the first major Greek NGOs to be formed by citizens that did not care for any of the traditional political parties of Greece. The NGO functions as a platform for its members, known as the "indignants", where they exchange ideas and express their disapproval with the current particracy.[3]
