TOPICS
Digitalisation and Good Governance
Club de Madrid and the Boston Global Forum held a series of discussions and a Policy Lab to address further questions related to tech governance. This ongoing collaboration focuses on how digital technologies and AI are creating new opportunities for the enjoyment of human rights, as well as new threats to their protection.
Gender Equality
Club de Madrid builds on our past engagement in support of women’s political empowerment in regions like Middle East, the Horn of Africa, or Latin America to add our voice to the growing call for gender equality in politics worldwide.
Global Commission on Democracy and Emergencies
COVID-19 erupted in the context of a crisis of democracy long in the making.
Information Integrity and the Future of Democracy
As citizens turn to their phones and tablets to get their news, information distributed through social media and online outlets becomes increasingly influential in configuring political perceptions.
Peer-to-Peer Leadership Support
Political leaders around the world rely on their own resources – their political abilities, their networks and their creativity – to meet the challenges of democracy, governance and inclusion.
