We take a look back at the Global Young Leaders workshop “Democracy Forward: Inspiring Change in Today’s World”, where one of our participants, Benefique Magadju Cirishungu, Regional Project Accountant at the Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung, kindly shared his thoughts on democracy, change and his experience at the workshop.

The Democracy Forward Workshop took place from November 30 to December 3 in Berlin and was hosted by Aspen Germany, in cooperation with Aspen International Partners. Around 40 young leaders gathered for the event and a full and exciting agenda awaited them: between seminars, simulations, social events, institutional meetings, and cultural visits, our participants were able to learn about democracy-related topics, discuss about current challenges for democracy in the world, and connect with like-minded people from all over the globe.

We are very thankful for the four days of intensive and thought-provoking sessions and hope to engage the participants with ongoing opportunities connected to the global Aspen network!
