Library Talk The Evolution of Multilateralism: Perspectives from the Global South

The Evolution of Multilateralism: Perspectives from the Global South Thursday, 20 February 2020 from 4 to 5.30 p.m. Library Events Room (B.135). Palais des Nations, Building B, 1st Floor. This event is an opportunity to discuss the role of the Global South in multilateralism and the vision of many nations that were sidelined during the creation of the structures of global cooperation that emerged after the Second World War. Nowadays, the Global South is teeming with initiatives for a more equitable and inclusive multilateralism. This debate will offer different perspectives on how global governance may evolve to meet the new challenges, such as climate change and rising inequalities. This Library Talk is part of the celebration of “100 Years of Multilateralism in Geneva (1920-2020)”, reflecting on the multilateralism of the future. The event will feature two high-profile academics, Glenda Sluga, University of Sydney, with her research on nationalism and internationalism, and Sandrine Kott, University of Geneva, with her work on economic inequality brought about by globalization.
