Disinformation is a fundamental threat to the integrity of elections worldwide. For Sunday’s #InternationalDayOfDemocracy, I’m grateful to UN Development for working with countries to fight disinformation and hate speech. We must protect rights, embrace inclusion and rebuild trust.

Young people set the development agenda for #OurCommonFuture. They are at the Summit of the Future #UNGA to tell world leaders that decisions made now must include youth. UN Development is here to amplify their voices to inspire all those in seats of power: listen, learn, & act.

Great award! Such a contribution to highlighting how institutions (and governance arrangements more broadly) underpin societal outcomes. Many are v familiar with 'why nations fail', I recommend also their more recent work on digital/tech.
