Whether it is the war in Ukraine, Covid-19, or climate change -- crises seem to have become the norm in our globalized, digitally-connected world. This state of global uncertainty is accompanied by the widespread perception of an increasingly divided society. According to critical observers, this division manifests itself primarily in the ever-increasing polarization of public discourse. This discussion featured a keynote by Masha Gessen, journalist and author ("Surviving Autocracy”), followed by a conversation between Alexander Görlach, journalist and senior research associate at Cambridge University; award-winning writer Prachi Gupta; journalist Sham Jaff, and project manager and writer Paulina Fröhlich.

The event is part of the "Transatlantic Media Forum", a one-day German-American gathering of fifteen renowned experts and journalists in New York City. Across three "Strategic Roundtables", the format allows for in-depth deliberations wherein we discussed the media and techno-economic mechanisms that cause and perpetuate each of these crises - regardless of their respective content. How can we achieve resilience under these conditions?The Transatlantic Media Forum was organized by 1014 and the Institute for Media and Communication Policy (IfM), in collaboration with the M100 Sanssouci Colloquium and with generous support from Stiftung Mercator.
