The Decline of Democracy and How to Preserve it
This presentation will diagnose the state of democracy, and then we will discuss how you can make a real difference and with whom to collaborate to succeed. We will discuss how to protect our democracies with both theoretical curiosity and practical exploration, including a debate about what are the things we cannot afford to lose and how to protect them as the 21st century is progressing.

Backdrop: The Perfect Storm of AI, Climate Change and Authoritarian Propaganda
Since 2007 the number of democracies in the world has consistently declined. The world as we know it is in upheaval, and authoritarian forces are gaining momentum both left and right.
But why are our moral values and world views transforming so rapidly? And why does rapidly increasing climate change and the introduction of AI accelerate this development?
