SUMMARY:Virtual Global Democracy Champions Summit
DESCRIPTION:Citizens of both established democracies and the world’s most repressive regimes have become less free in recent years\, with 8 in 10 people living in “Partly Free” or “Not Free” countries\, according to the Freedom House. While democratic Ukraine’s fierce resistance has galvanized a steadfast international response\, efforts by democracy champions to turn the tide on authoritarianism and build inclusive\, multigroup democracy remain siloed—segmented by national boundaries. \nKeseb a new global nonpartisan nonprofit organization\, and the SNF Agora Institute at Johns Hopkins University have partnered to host the inaugural Global Democracy Champions Summit. The summit will create a forum for democracy entrepreneurs\, activists\, academics\, journalists\, philanthropists\, and policy makers to uplift compelling ideas\, share insights across national boundaries\, and create a global network of activists and civil society leaders committed to building inclusive\, 21st century democracies. \nSessions will include: the state of global democracy; battling the effects of conspiracy theory and disinformation; building enduring people power; imagining a co-governance model; entrepreneurship as a vehicle for building inclusive and multigroup democracies; and the global youth movement for democracy. \n\nSpeakers include:\n\nTareq Alani\, Chief Product Officer\, PushBlack\nAnne Applebaum\, Senior Fellow\, School of Advanced International Studies and the SNF Agora Institute; Staff Writer\, The Atlantic\nIan Bassin\, Co-Founder and Executive Director\, Protect Democracy\nJagdeep Chhokar\, Founding Member and Trustee\, Association for Democratic Reforms\nAkunna Cook\, Deputy Assistant Secretary\, Bureau of African Affairs\, U.S. Department of State\nHahrie Han\, Inaugural Director of the SNF Agora Institute\, Professor of Political Science\, and Faculty Director of the P3 Research Lab at Johns Hopkins University\nGabriel Marmentini\, Co-Founder and Executive Director\, Politize!\nKoketso Moeti\, Founding Executive Director\, amandla mobi\nTulaine Montgomery\, Co-CEO\, New Profit\nYascha Mounk\, Associate Professor of the Practice of International Affairs\, School of Advanced International Studies and the SNF Agora Institute\nFarida Nabourema\, Executive Director of the Togolese Civil League\nNick Penniman\, Founder and CEO\, Issue One\nSalil Shetty\, Vice President\, Global Programs\, Open Society Foundations\nLisa Witter\, CEO\, Apolitical Foundation\nUzra Zeya\, Under Secretary of State for Civilian Security\, Democracy\, and Human Rights\n\n\nFor detailed information about the summit sessions and speakers\, please visit this page.
