LIFT 2024 | Democracy From Where I Stand, The Dutch Church, Saturday 8th June. In partnership with the Financial Times.
In a year when half the world’s population are heading to the polls in national elections, LIFT and the Financial Times came together in LIFT 2024, to present Democracy From Where I Stand, a powerful night of provocations, poetry, live music and performance at The Square Mile’s Dutch Church. The event brought together leading women from across the globe to share their views on and relationship to democracy today.
This event was developed from the FT film series Democracy 2024, directed and produced by Juliet Riddell, and was presented as part of LIFT the City, supported by The City of London @cityoflondon.
