About the Summit

Democracy and its principles are under great pressure in countries all over the world. It is being weakened by hybrid warfare, by the relativisation of facts, and by looking up to authoritarian types of leaders. It is neither helped by the undermining and questioning of the role of civil society. All this leads to polarisation of society in Slovakia as well.

In response to this negative trend, we are organising the Impact Summit – an event that will bring together the civic, public and corporate sectors, as well as academia. We believe that people from these fields should have conversations on important societal issues, share experiences in finding solutions, and collaborate with each other. Democracy and trust will be the main themes this year.

What role does trust play in strengthening democracy? How can modern philanthropy support democracy? In what ways can social innovations contribute to strengthening trust and depolarisation?
