Are Western democracies the model to emulate for non-Western countries or do they require different models? Do democracies sufficiently represent all their constituents? How are minorities protected?
Kenneth Lusaka (The Rt. Hon. Speaker of the Senate, Parliament of the Republic of Kenya), David Sperling (Research Professor and Senior Research Fellow, Strathmore Governance Centre; Kenya ) and Ulrika Karlsson (Special Advisor on Global Health, Inter-Parliamentary Union) recently discussed some of these questions within the scope of “New Thinking for a New World.” The discussion was facilitated by Maarten Koets, a board member of the Tällberg Foundation.

Unpacking a Tällberg Workshop: Hopes, concerns and red threads

Our initial podcast was recorded in Nairobi, Kenya, after a Tällberg Workshop. Three members of the Tällberg Foundation community reflect on “New Thinking for a New World.” Optimism or pessimism about the future may have less to do with facts, and more to do with filters: young or old, local or global, African or western.
Participating in the conversation are Tällberg Foundation board member Mark Abdollahian (CEO, ACERTAS and Professor, Claremont Graduate University, US) and Tällberg/Eliasson Global Leadership Prize jury member Vishakha Desai (Senior Advisor for Global Affairs to the President of Columbia University) and it is moderated by Tällberg Foundation’s chairman Alan Stoga.
