Civil Society Under Threat: COVID-19, authoritarianism and more

Since the launch of the global War on Terror, civil society has come under persistent threat. New laws restricting the spaces and activities of civil society have been passed across the world. The rise of populist regimes, increasing authoritarian tendencies and COVID-19 have further tightened controls over civil society. What does this mean for the future of a progressive civil society?
Speakers: Dr Sergej Ljubownikow, Dr Nicola Macbean, Dr Mariz Tadr.
