Explore Your Life: Karen Mukwasi on Digital Inclusion, Resilience, and Community-Centered Democracy

January 16, 2025

As part of the 28th Forum 2000 Conference, we conducted a series of interviews with members of our wider Forum 2000 network. These conversations aim to highlight the inspiring work they do while offering an insight into their lives, hopes, and dreams. This interview features Karen Mukwasi, member of Democratic Solidarity Africa, and Co-Founder and Director of The Pada Platform, a nonprofit promoting digital inclusion for young women and girls. Karen shares details of her journey, highlights the importance of patience in resisting repression, and underscores the need to listen to local communities in democracy promotion efforts.
