The COVID-19 pandemic has further intensified the already existing trend of weakening democracies and increasingly repressive autocracies. The conference sheds light on these global trends and the effects of COVID-19 on democratic governance in four panels:

Part 2
February 10th, 4:00 pm - 5: 30 pm (CET)


Panel 2
The abuse of the pandemic as an instrument of repression
Where has the pandemic been used as an instrument of repression?
Which patterns have emerged and what mechanisms have been employed to perpetuate restrictive measures?
Has digital surveillance and tracking increased?

With (among others):
- Carlos Dada, El Faro, El Salvador
- Diana Salinas, Cuestión Pública, Bogotá
- Bahruz Samadov, Charles University, Prague
