OECD Global Forum on Building Trust and Reinforcing Democracy

πŸ“… 21 – 22 October 2024
Milano, Italy

In this year of multiple elections, the stakes for democratic governments and societies are high. Societies continue to face a range of significant challenges, from economic security and recovery to heightened geopolitical tensions, climate change, and digitalization.

Yet, declining trust and rising polarisation are thwarting social dialogue and consensus and hindering the delivery of needed reforms, as well as further dissociating citizens from traditional democratic processes.

This 2nd edition will be looking at the new evidence on the evolution of the drivers of trust in public institutions, discussing emerging cutting-edge government practices while taking into account structural evolutions such as the rise of artificial intelligence, concerns about foreign interference in open societies, and the need to foster consensus around climate action.
