Do We Dare to Hope? Embracing Hope: Insights from “Athens Democracy” Forum

In the city where democracy was born two millennia ago, the Athens democracy forum took place. In the 21st century, where the world continues to change constantly, what we have to ensure that will remain the same is democracy. For three days at the forum, politicians, policymakers, youth, academics, and activists brought the challenges we face and the solutions we must implement to protect the democratic ideal and people's fundamental freedoms. In a world grappling with challenges like climate change, widespread migration, and advancing technology, the stability of democracy is at the forefront.

Reflecting on the past and envisioning the future, reimagining the foundations of democracy is vital. Inclusivity, digital democracy, and transparency emerge as crucial considerations. For three days at the “Athens Democracy” Forum, Mexoxo representatives delved into democracy and emphasized the need to fortify it. Panelists highlighted the importance of active involvement from policymakers, citizens, leaders, and civil society organizations. Strengthening democracy is a collective effort for a more resilient and inclusive future. The forum exuded a palpable sense of hope, fueled by the vibrant engagement of young participants. Their genuine eagerness to actively contribute spoke volumes about their desire to shape the future. The panel discussion on "Teens of Democracy" was a powerful reminder that as we prioritize and amplify the voices of teenagers in decision-making, a brighter future unfolds. This holds particular significance for women, urging us to recognize the transformative impact of actively involving the younger generation in shaping a more equitable and just society. The event underscored the potential of collective participation, especially from youth, as a guiding force toward a promising tomorrow.


The presence of Mexoxo's executives at the forum was profoundly impactful. Their unwavering dedication to addressing humanity's pivotal challenges demonstrated a commendable sense of responsibility. This engagement proved immensely valuable and enlightening for shaping our future endeavors based on the forum's scientific insights and exemplary practices.

During the event, we heard from individuals deeply committed to upholding democracy's stability. We engaged in fruitful exchanges of ideas and forged valuable connections with like-minded individuals and organizations who share our vision. Our collective objective is to democratize education, particularly for women globally.


The Athens Democracy Forum imparted a resounding message: Can we dare to envision a more robust democracy? We can and realising this vision hinges on the concerted efforts and steadfast commitment of individuals from all walks of society.
