Worlds Apart: Lessons on Polarization from Global Leaders

Event

31/05/2024

As part of IFIT and the Ford Foundation’s Global Initiative on Polarization, a high-level two-day convening took place in New York City entitled “Worlds Apart: Lessons on Polarization from Global Leaders”. 

The event gathered 250+ U.S. social, political, media and business leaders and four global peacemakers from IFIT’s network who shared critical lessons from their experience in shifting extreme states of polarization:

 – Hon. Ms. Ouided Bouchamaoui (Tunisia) 

 – General Óscar Naranjo (Colombia) 

 – Rev. Dr. Samuel Kobia (Kenya) 

 – Hon. Ms. Monica McWilliams (UK)

Together with our media partner, Economist Impact, we have created special content on pathways to depolarization.

We invite you to watch this video on how to overcome polarization.
