Lecture with Former President of Tunisia Dr. Mohamed Moncef Marzouki: "The Arab Democratic Revolutions Have Just Begun"

17 April 2025 17:30 to 18:30 | Lecture/talk
Mohamed Moncef Marzouki

The Association of Foreign Affairs in Lund is organising an online lecture with the former President of Tunisia, Dr. Mohamed Moncef Marzouki in collaboration with CMES.

In this lecture, Dr. Mohamed Moncef Marzouki, Tunisia's first democratically elected president, will reflect on the hopes and setbacks of the Arab Spring. Drawing from his unique political journey, he explores the challenges facing democracy in the Arab world and questions whether it can remain a credible, viable alternative amid rising authoritarianism and global disillusionment. 

Dr. Mohamed Moncef Marzouki is a human rights activist, medical doctor, and former President of Tunisia. Elected after the 2011 revolution, he championed transparency, civil liberties, and democratic dialogue. Now in exile, he continues to advocate for democracy in Tunisia and across the Arab world.

This is an online event. To attend, please register following this link. Following your registration, you will receive an email from the Association of Foreign Affairs with the link to the Zoom-lecture.

The lecture will be moderated by Said Haji.
