FIRESIDE CHAT WITH VP OF THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION DUBRAVKA ŠUICA - This conversation took place in the lead up to the second Summit for Democracy happening in March, which brought together a broad swath of pro-democracy allies and partners from around the world to demonstrate progress on strengthening democratic institutions, tackling corruption, and defending human rights. Vice-President Šuica recently launched the European Commission’s Deliberative Democracy Cohort as one of the Summit’s multi-stakeholder groups aiming to address the threats to internal democratic resilience.
The conversation focused on the EU’s new defense of democracy package and the European Commission’s initiative on the protection of the EU’s democratic space from malign outside interests, highlighting a key aspect of the Vice-President’s expansive portfolio on leading the Commission’s initiatives on deliberative democracy.
