"Democracy in Trouble? Insights from a Democracy promoter".
After the fall of the Iron Curtain, it appeared that democracy was in ascendancy. From 1995 to 2017 foreign aid specialist Steven Gray worked in 14 countries on democracy promotion projects. With our own elections front of mind, he will lead the discussion about how New Zealand compares to lower-income countries in transition to democratically elected government.
Steven's speciality was providing expertise in participatory management, strategic planning, training and program evaluation to community-based and governmental organizations. He will highlight his experience in building capacity for free and fair elections in Eastern Europe, Africa, and Asia.
