This has been a lovely and lively conversation about faith in politics. Many thanks to @apoliticalco @isonbek who in the heat of the chat called me “dude” which was so beautiful:) A great day at @ForumAthens it was. Have a listen.
🎙️ Are we wrong to push the idea of political hope? In our new podcast ep, Turkish journalist @ETemelkuran calls for stronger concepts like “irrefutable faith” & tells @isonbek why she chooses to believe in people, despite regular disappointment. Listen: bit.ly/3WcqRJF
Come help me and the rest of the @ApoliticalFound cultivate courageous, ethical and trusted politicians! This is a cool opportunity to work across both external comms and our groundbreaking projects.

🎙️ A politician’s mental wellbeing is as important as a pilot’s. So how do we give our leaders the support they need? @VictoriaHasson & Dr. Ashley Weinberg explore the answers in the latest ep of #APoliticalHope 👇

It's imperative that we find a way to get activists hitting the street into political power. There will be big consequences if they continue to feel underrepresented.
Thank you @Venzon_Andrea and @ColombeCS for speaking to me at the @ForumAthens.
🪧 How do we turn more passionate activists into politicians? @atlasmovement and @VoltEuropa's @ColombeCS and @Venzon_Andrea talk about why we need to get energized people with strong missions into political office ASAP.

Politicians don't have the mental wellbeing support they need, and democratic innovation is suffering as a result.

I've suffered bouts of paralyzing climate despair. Conversations with @ramonalxyu are one of the things that keep me from inertia. As #Cop27 enters its final days, we can and should look towards the parts of climate politics that offer some hope.

Thanks so much for taking the time to share your political story, @alexstubb.
What lessons do you learn in one of the toughest jobs in politics?
We were delighted to speak to former Prime Minister of Finland & our Global Advisor @alexstubb about optimism, patience & being yourself in office. Our latest #APoliticalPath interview 👉 bit.ly/3DGWRhn
ALT On the left is Alexander Stubb, smiling and looking into the camera. On the right is a quote of his: "In Finnish, there's this really stupid saying, which is: 'a pessimist will never be disappointed'. Well, yeah, right! But a pessimist will never change the world either." With his name, the blue Apolitical Foundation Logo and the "A Political Path' heading
