The Athens Democracy Forum is marking its tenth anniversary this year. But while the Forum can celebrate, democracy cannot.
Join us in Athens or virtually as we explore the innovative approaches needed to overcome the challenges facing democracy, a decade later. We will call on the brightest – and often youngest – minds to come up with a prescription for a new breed of democracy, one that recognizes that only bold action will have a chance against malignant threats.
You can choose to attend in-person in Athens to maximise learning and networking opportunities, or attend the free, online event.
