Corinne Momal-Vanian is the Executive Director of the Kofi Annan Foundation. Previously, she worked in various senior positions and a variety of countries for the United Nations, most recently as Director of Conference Management at the United Nations Office at Geneva (2015-2020) and Director of Information (2010-2015).
We invited Corinne Momal-Vanian back to The Next Page for a conversation with the Director of the Library & Archives, Francesco Pisano to explore an intriguing topic: the nexus between democracy and multilateralism. In an increasingly interconnected world, how do these two fundamental ideas interact and shape the global IR landscape? They discuss how democracy can serve and support multilateralism, the evolution of multilateralism and the rise of non-state actors and civil society organizations, and the role of youth in democratizing multilateralism.
