Across the globe, democracy is under pressure. Authoritarian movements are gaining ground, disinformation is weaponized daily, and democratic institutions are being tested like never before. But in the middle of this crisis, something remarkable is happening women are leading the fight back.
Linda Robinson has spent years conducting exclusive interviews with some of the most consequential leaders of our time:
- Taiwan’s Tsai Ing-wen, who defended her country against Chinese aggression
- Estonia’s Kaja Kallas and Moldova’s Maia Sandu, who confronted Russian hybrid warfare head-on
- Barbados’ Mia Mottley, who became a global champion for climate justice
- Balkan leaders who bolstered their democracies against destabilization from within and without.
Robinson will explore what these leaders have in common, how they govern differently, and what their strategies reveal about building more resilient democracies, including here in the United States. She’ll also examine the unique obstacles women in power face, from coordinated misogynistic attacks to weaponized digital campaigns, and how the most effective among them have turned those challenges into political strength.
