History
Demokrat Kebangsaan initially started off as a movement in Universiti Malaya on the year 2016. The initial founding members from Universiti Malaya's Law School round up a few campus students with the intention of setting up an organisation with its pillars of advocating democratic participation, upholding human rights, an organisation moved by the principle of non-partisan.

In addition to its presence at Universiti Malaya, Demokrat Kebangsaan has expanded its organisation to other university campuses throughout Malaysia. In 2017, the organisation established a chapter at Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia, and has since continued to grow its membership and influence across the country. Today, Demokrat Kebangsaan is active on mainstream national politics and several university campuses and has become a prominent voice for young people in Malaysia.

Post Langkah Sheraton, in May 2020, a meeting was held between all Demokrat members in and off campus, to discuss and decide on the next step to ensure their assertion and influence in Malaysia's political landscape. A series of engagements was made to ascertain their causes, where Demokrat Kebangsaan was said to be heavily supported by the grassroots of Malaysian youth. It was rumoured that the organisation was initially set to establish a political parties primarily focusing on the large faction of youth in Malaysia, but decided to establish an organisation focusing on youth empowerment, social welfare, street activism and political education.
