Coping with COVID - International Perspectives (Austria)
Fear, uncertainty, changes, disruption… These are the best words to describe today’s picture of the world. The Coronavirus has not left any country untouched and has already affected the lives of millions of people. Lockdown or open borders, quarantine or free movement, #stayathome or #donotpanic, indifference or calmness, anxiety or discretion, exaggeration or cautiousness? What is currently happening around the world? What strategies are the national governments adhering to? What is the public attitude towards the present situation? In this series of online discussions, we will explore these questions with the country office directors of KAS as well as discuss the pandemic’s future implications on the economic, political and social life in their countries.

Umdenken für die Zukunft: Globale Fragen für Gesellschaft, Umwelt und Wirtschaft
Buchvorstellung und Diskussion mit Entwicklungsminister Dr. Gerd Müller
Der Klimawandel, das Bevölkerungswachstum in Afrika, die Sicherung der Welternährung, der Kampf um Wasser, Pandemien und Flüchtlingsdramen, all das sind Überlebensfragen der Menschheit. In vielen dieser Bereiche zeigt die Uhr bereits fünf nach zwölf an; dennoch ist es nicht zu spät. Wir haben jetzt die Chance für einen echten Wandel. Was hierfür gefordert ist, ist entschlossenes Handeln, ein Paradigmenwechsel, ein Umdenken in Politik, Wirtschaft und Gesellschaft, und dies in weltweiter Perspektive.

From Fake News to Deep Fakes: On the Threat of Deep Fakes to Democracy and Society
For years, the influence of fake news and the manipulation of public and political perception has been a threat to political systems. Especially during the time of the COVID-19 pandemic, the spread of misinformation and conspiracy theories have risen to new heights, as non-state actors – among them extremists and populists – tried to take advantage of the situation. But also state actors have engaged in the distribution of fake news concerning the virus, putting their own citizens at risk.
