Future of Democracy: Resilience Against Ethno-Nationalism & Digital Threats

Across the world, democracies are confronting powerful pressures: identity-based nationalism, targeted disinformation, shrinking civic space, and the erosion of public trust. On Human Rights Day, we bring together scholars, policymakers, and global civil-society leaders to unpack these challenges and discuss how societies can remain open, inclusive, and rights-respecting. This 90-minute panel offers a forward-looking conversation about resilience, accountability, and the role of youth in rebuilding democratic confidence.
