More Information
In 2024, more than 70 countries around the world will hold general elections following the conclusion of Taiwan’s presidential and legislative elections in January, with the new government set to take office in May. Elections for the European Parliament take place in June 2024, the US Presidential election in November, while the reelection of Russian President Vladimir Putin could lead to changes or developments in the Russia-Ukraine war launched by Moscow in February 2022. How the outcomes of these elections impact geopolitics and the global economy will attract much attention?
On this occasion, the Rti forum not only invites experts who are familiar with Taiwan's international relations and economic development to discuss the hard issues: 1) Turning the Page: 2024 a Year of General Elections and a New International Environment, with a focus on how the strategies of Taiwan's government are responding to global changes and how the international community is accommodating Taiwan in its global agenda. In addition, our second session looks at how soft power has become a major alternative for the country as it seeks to connect with other societies and foster understanding between diverse communities around the world. 2) Aural Power: Amplifying Taiwan on the International Stage will take you on a journey of sound and music to explore how the diversity and vitality of modern Taiwan are delivered to people around the world.
Thank you for your registration. We look forward to welcoming you to the event on 7th May!
