The Democracy Discourse Series (DDS) project will hold the first public forum for its second round of implementation, entitled “Cultivating Spaces for Dialogue and Deliberation” on May 12, 2023, at the Bayleaf Hotel, Intramuros, Manila, Philippines.
The public forum will introduce the new DDS Public Intellectuals from Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Singapore and Thailand, working on artistic, journalistic, and community engagement projects that seek to intervene into and cultivate democratic spaces and practices in Southeast Asia. The event will feature a roundtable discussion with some of the chosen fellows or public intellectuals where they talked about the challenges of being democracy advocates in their respective national contexts and their views on the prospects of cultivating dialogue and deliberation across Southeast Asia. The forum will be capped by a keynote address by Dr. Maria Serena I. Diokno, Professor Emeritus of History from the University of the Philippines.
