Ep40 - UN USG Melissa Fleming: UN@80 and the Importance of Multilateralism
We devote the special Europe Day episode to the 80th Anniversary of the United Nation. This year we also celebrate 75th years of Schuman Declaration the foundation of the European Union. It is a great moment to reflect on what multilateralism truly means today and how we can reconnect people, especially youth, with the institutions that are meant to serve them. We are honoured to have UN’s own, USG for Global Communications Melissa Fleming. USG Fleming has been a passionate advocate for the power of truth, information integrity, storytelling, and of course, international cooperation. She has been the heart of how the UN communicates to the world. USG Fleming together with EU YD Giulia explores the evolving role of the UN, cooperation with the EU, and the importance of multilateralism; what it means to communicate hope and action in the age of disinformation, and how we can build trust in institutions that often feel far away but impact our lives every day.
