Join us for the launch of Nations in Transit 2024, Freedom House's report on the state of democracy in the 29-country region stretching from Central Europe to Central Asia, a region increasingly defined by the widening gulf between those nations committed to a liberal, democratic order and those that violently reject it. The event will feature remarks from David J. Kramer, Executive Director, George W. Bush Institute and Vice President, George W. Bush Presidential Center, a presentation of key report findings, and a panel discussion on the implications of those findings and the state of democracy in the region.

- Nicole Bibbins Sedaca, Executive Vice President, Freedom House
- David J. Kramer, Executive Director, George W. Bush Institute and Vice President, George W. Bush Presidential Center
