I was honored to deliver the inaugural Bridges Institute/Vivian Lowery Derryck Africa Lecture at @GWtweets. It gives me great hope to see the next generation of young people aspiring to public leadership positions. Current leaders must make space at the table.

"Because ultimately, democracy is more than just a lofty idea. Democracies should deliver. Democracies deliver." But it's not guaranteed. This why @epleaders @pyppleaders believe investing in the people and institutions of Democracy is so important.
