At the @berggruenInst event on renewing Democracy in the Digital Age.
From Dawn Nakagawa: The crisis in democracy isn’t just a crisis of confidence - it has failed to adapt to a digital society.
Dawn Nakagawa for @berggruenInst: You need a sense of obligation and a skill set which lets you disagree well, and resolve problems.
@RichardDawkins, in attendance, asks the panel if the voting age should be lowered. And if we need a certain set of skills for democracy.
@HelleThorning_S responds that we need to create the basic skills for citizens to understand one another.
