Interview with Andrew Gilmour, CEO, Berghof Foundation
Update: 2021-07-09
Description
Interview recorded via Zoom in February 2021.
The UN Brief interviewed Mr. Gilmour to speak about his career at the UN, that spanned 30 years under the leadership of five UN Secretary-Generals, the challenges faced by the UN and human rights activists. We also spoke about the positive role of new technologies in revealing gross violations and gathering support for activists with the click of a button, and its darker side: how social media platforms fuel major human rights violations by amplifying hate speech, xenophobia, and allowing extremists to organize.
