In just a couple of months European citizens will be heading to vote in both national elections and the 2024 European elections - and the stakes have never been higher!
Hence, we are on a mission to try and figure out how to stop the far right from picking up a wave of parliamentary seats across the EU. And in today's episode, which is the first of our "far right" mini-series, we had the privilege to speak to Nika Kovač, the Founding Director of the 8th of March Research Institute.
In the episode, we talk about the truly inspiring work Nika and her movement carried out in Slovenia, showing how civil society can truly create change and make an impact.
We also discuss how to concretely defeat the far right, namely by connecting with people on positive topics that all the political spectrum can agree on, by using tools of democracy such as referendums to truly show what a population thinks/wants, sparking joy and amusement among people, and searching for allies where one doesn't usually expect to find allies...
Nika is a truly inspiring hero and her story will hopefully fill you with enthusiasm to hit the streets and make your voice heard against those threatening our rights and values.
We hope you enjoy the episode!
Find out more about the 8th March Institute.
