Over the last few weeks, you met the voices shaping this conversation. Now, here is what they will be discussing.

Panel 1: Democracy at a Turning Point — navigating disruption and its implications for democratic systems, technology, trust and citizen expectations.
Panel 2: From Disruption to Delivery — how institutions can restore trust, strengthen accountability and remain responsive to citizens.

Two panels. Two directions. One Dialogue, about where democracy goes next.
We meet this Monday, the 21st of September 2026 at 10:00 AM ET / 3:00 PM WAT at the New York City Bar, 42 West 44th Street, New York.

Registration is still open. Join us in person or virtually on Monday, the 21st of September 2026 at 10:00 AM ET / 3:00 PM WAT at the New York City Bar, 42 West 44th Street, New York.

4 days to go!

Democracy is being tested by forces reshaping how people participate, how institutions operate and how trust is built. Technology is accelerating. Information environments are becoming harder to navigate. And citizens are demanding more from the systems that are meant to represent them.

These are the conversations at the heart of the Democracy Futures Dialogue.

Join us on Monday, the 21st of September 2026 at 10:00 AM ET / 3:00 PM WAT at the New York City Bar, 42 West 44th Street, New York — in person or virtually.

5 days to go!

The countdown is on, and we are getting ready to take the Democracy Futures Dialogue to New York.

In five days, we bring together key global voices to unpack the pressures reshaping democracy and ask the bigger question: what does it take to build democracies that remain resilient, trusted and responsive?

We converge on the 21st September, 10:00 AM ET (3:00 PM WAT) at the New York City Bar in New York.

Registration is still open, attend in person or join us virtually: https://globalevents.kimpact.org.ng/
