This After Work Event rotated around 14 young professionals and stakeholders from the digital policy sector, who are part of an exclusive fellowship supported by the German government!

These young innovators are focused on some of the biggest challenges in AI governance and global internet policy, and they are eager to exchange ideas with our community!

Joining them was Lars Radscheidt, the Digital Policy Advisor at Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH, as our interview guest.

Our discussion at Halles de l’Île highlighted that inclusion is a non-negotiable: we must bring diverse voices to the table; and that meaningful changes in international digital policy and diplomacy demand persistent action and long-term vision – as opposed to a short-term “sprint” optic.
