Description

In October 2021,  I traveled to Skopje, North Macedonia to meet with open government reformers who had managed to escape Afghanistan just a few months earlier.
Today, we speak with Erfan Erzaz, one of the activists who have now resettled in Canada.  We speak about the reasons why Afghanistan’s democracy fell and look back to the country’s history to provide context. On the show, we also discuss the contributions of open government work and the lessons we can all learn from Afghanistan’s democratic efforts.

How do we do government differently? Listen to conversations with leaders who break the mold — from anti-corruption advocates to social justice champions, and public servants who fight for transparency, inclusion, participation, and accountability in government. Join host Stephanie Bluma as she shares insights on what governments and civil society from different regions of the world can learn from each other — and how we can renew our societies. This podcast is a production of Open Government Partnership and Hueman Group Media.
