About the Future Forum
Political polarisation, populism, disinformation: democracy is facing a variety of challenges. At the same time, our society has major tasks that require constructive cooperation in order to overcome crises and shape our future. So how can we preserve and strengthen our democracy? The Rectorate of the University of Wuppertal invites you to the "Future Democracy Forum" series of events once a semester for impulses and discussions.
