Compartimos la experiencia de Ana Esther Vergara, politóloga y periodista, en el seminario de Liberalismo vs populismo en FNF - International Academy for Leadership (IAF). El #seminario “Liberalismo vs populismo: cómo pueden ganar los #liberales” superó mis expectativas! Una serie de conferencias que invitaron a la reflexión, junto con trabajos grupales prácticos y creativos, ¡que incluyó la producción de arte!, hicieron que mi tiempo en la IAF fuera muy estimulante. Tener un poco de perspectiva, alejarme de las presiones del día a día, reunirme con colegas de otros continentes y el dúo Radu-Sven me permitió pensar globalmente, comparar y contrastar diferentes realidades y establecer una red con colegas analistas. Estoy muy agradecida por la #experiencia; aunque nadie puede vencer a los populistas por sí solo, me consuela el hecho de que con una mejor comprensión del libreto que siguen y con colegas con ideas afines en todo el mundo, estamos mejor equipados para intentar.
