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.
