We live in highly disruptive times. Technology scrambles our patterns of work, life and rest. Climate change risks will render many places in the world unlivable and trigger mass migration patterns that will fuel dramatic demographic shifts. Will new models of democratic governance emerge to better address these 21st century challenges, combat disinformation and polarization, and inspire the public to solve intractable problems from the local to the planetary? Join us, as we learn from leading experts about what might lie ahead of us (the good, the bad and everything in between) in the coming decade or more, and ways that we might shape more sustainable and equitable futures. This #PrincetonStar event is open to everyone.
Sponsored by the Association of Princeton Graduate Alumni (APGA)
