History is marked by constant change, and the history of global democracy is no exception. While governing institutions and leaders have not always embraced democratic values, universities have in many ways endured as places of free expression and exchange of ideas. In this way, they are more than educational institutions: they are havens for freedom and the pursuit of knowledge, offering a foothold for societies striving to grow and improve.
Yet, despite their enduring strengths, universities are facing significant challenges in today’s divisive climate. How can we ensure that they continue to fulfill their crucial role in promoting and safeguarding democratic values and inspiring democratic change?
The SNF Dialogues opens this vital discussion with experts on these questions but also, most importantly, students themselves, exploring how to ensure that universities meet the moment and do their part to carry the torch of democracy forward.
The panel features distinguished professors Irene Mulvey, AAUP Immediate Past President and Professor Emerita of Mathematics at Fairfield University, John Holmwood, Emeritus Professor of Sociology at the University of Nottingham, John Tomasi, President of the Heterodox Academy, and Hahrie Han, Inaugural Director of the SNF Agora Institute at Johns Hopkins University,.
Students participating in the discussion include April Anthony, SNF Ithaca student leader at the University of Delaware, Faith Applegate, a senior at the University of Pennsylvania, Anna Oakes, multimedia journalist and graduate student at the Columbia Journalism School, and Luke McDermott, External Vice President at the Association of Students of the University of Nebraska and Chairman of the Husker Vote Coalition. The President of Johns Hopkins University, Ron Daniels, will also make an intervention during the discussion.

Navigating the Impact of Covid-19 on Children’s Mental Health with Harold S. Koplewicz (ENG)
Child psychiatrist and Founding President as well as Medical Director of the Child Mind Institute in New York Dr. Harold S. Koplewicz has joined three pandemic-era Dialogues discussions related to mental health. Almost a year later, Phoebe Fronista met him in Athens, where he was taking part in a conference organized by the Child and Adolescent Mental Health Initiative, a new partnership between the Stavros Niarchos Foundation (SNF) and the Child Mind Institute that aims to help strengthen the infrastructure for preventing and treating mental health struggles faced by children and adolescents across Greece. The initiative is part of the SNF’s Global Health Initiative (GHI).
Dr. Koplewicz talked about how PTSD manifests in kids, behavioral red flags to look out for, as well as the need to raise awareness on mental health issues in the post-pandemic era.
