Panel Discussion
Nations in Transit 2024 cover
Friday, April 19, 2024, 2:00 pm – 3:30 pm

The CEU Democracy Institute and Freedom House cordially invite you to a discussion of Freedom House's new report, Nations in Transit 2024: A Region Reordered by Democracy and Autocracy.

Nations in Transit 2024 is Freedom House's report on the state of democracy in the 29-country region stretching from Central Europe to Central Asia, a region increasingly defined by the widening gulf between those nations committed to a liberal, democratic order and those that violently reject it. The event will feature a presentation of key report findings by two Research Analysts of Freedom House, Michael Smeltzer and Alexandra Karppi, and comments and discussion on the implications of those findings and the state of democracy in the region by Bálint Magyar (CEU DI), József Péter Martin (TI), and Ágnes Urbán (BCE).

Presenters:

  • Mike Smeltzer, Senior Research Analyst for “Nations in Transit,” Freedom House
  • Alexandra Karppi, Research Analyst for “Nations in Transit,” Freedom House
