Democratisation as self-defence, disinformation and activist journalism

Taiwan and East Asia

 

Gefördert durch ENGAGEMENT GLOBAL mit Mitteln des

What does the journey towards democracy look like in the East Asian region? Over the last decade, countries here have faced various democratic challenges. Taiwan, for instance, underwent a remarkable democratic transformation in the 1990s. Yet, the island continues to grapple with security and sovereignty as the People's Republic of China claims it as their own. These nations deploy democratisation to safeguard their values and show unity among their diverse populations in the face of an autocratic adversary.

In this webinar, Brian Hioe will join us. He is an impassioned activist-journalist who took matters into his own hands by launching his own magazine. His mission? To tackle the growing menace of disinformation in Taiwan. His question resonates loudly: How can journalism play a pivotal role in strengthening the pillars of democracy?

Mini Documentary - Brian explains the realities and challenges of democracy activism in Taiwan

 

Brian was joined for our webinar on 22 November by Bruno Kaufmann, a political scientist and direct democracy expert, who has followed the development of direct democracy legislation in Taiwan closely.
