Elections 2024: Democracy on the ballot

In this webinar, Aaron O’Neill, Senior Researcher Economy, Politics, Society & Life, will provide an overview with insights into the elections of 2024, their global significance, and what they mean for the future of democracy worldwide.

2024 will see more voters than ever head to the polls. Yet, with a global backslide in democracy over the past decade, many of these elections are being viewed as an existential choice between candidates wishing to preserve democracy or those with ambitions to be more autocratic rulers.
Will 2024 go down as the year that accelerated the rise of autocracy? Or could it be remembered as the year that kickstarted democracy’s resurgence?

This webinar will cover the following topics:

• An overview of the most significant elections in each region
• Who the winners or key players are in these elections and what their victory could mean for the future
• How election results in single countries can have global consequences

The webinar was recorded on March 27th, 2024.
