In 2024, voters in countries like India, France, Great Britain, Venezuela, Mexico, South Africa, and Iran headed to the polls for critical elections. What do these results reveal about global democracy? How are new technologies and media transforming democracy? What might the trends tell us about the upcoming US election? 

Join us for an insightful discussion with international democracy experts and civil society leaders on global democratic trends, the impact of technology and media, and grassroots efforts in supporting democratic practices. 

Speakers include:

  • Yana Gorokhovskaia, Research Director at Freedom House
  •  Seema Shah, Head of Democracy Assessment at International IDEA 

 

 

 

 

Students gather in Dhaka, Bangladesh to protest the police and the ruling party, the Awami League.
