Today's Close-Up S2022E01 - New Year, New Society? — Key Figures Share their Thoughts

For our first episode of 2022, we interviewed two internationally prominent figures. One is Maria Ressa, the Philippine journalist who received the Nobel Peace Prize last year. She referred us to the famous phrase "Silence is complicity," but what does it mean as democracy stands at a crossroads? The other is Katrín Jakobsdóttir, the prime minister of Iceland — the world's most gender-equal country. We asked her for her thoughts on what needs to be done to realize a true gender-equal society.

Guests:
Maria Ressa (Journalist)
Katrín Jakobsdóttir (Icelandic Prime Minister)
