Join us for a discussion of Braver New World, the new book by award-winning journalist @kampfnerjohn .
He will be joined by former UK Foreign Secretary David Miliband and @theobserveruk Editor-in-Chief James Harding.
Braver New World explores how countries across the globe are responding to today’s most pressing challenges, from inter-generational care in Japan to solar panels in the Sahara creating clean energy.
Together, they will discuss what we can learn from these global examples, and how such ideas might help us build a better society.

A wonderful Braver New World launch last night at the beautiful @dauntbooks in Marylebone. Sincere thanks to the journalists, authors, friends, family and even ambassadors who came along and celebrated the publication of John Kampfner’s excellent and necessary new book.
May this be the start of a much needed wider conversation on political courage: what it looks like and how we can have more of it.

Today marks the official publication date of ‘Braver New World’. For me it’s the culmination of a three-year odyssey in search of best practice, and hope in our politics. It’s my eighth book - the most ambitious to plan and daunting to write. I’m so grateful to the many people in the 10 countries and cities I visited for giving me their insights, and look forward to seeing some of them at the launch event in London next week. In the meantime, please buy the book! Please engage with the arguments. Please spread the word. I hope it contributes, even in a small way, to a braver new world.
What better week to be (cautiously) hopeful about the state of our politics than after the Hungary result. Was a delight to do Start The Week yesterday with @natashawalter_writer@apostcardfromthevolcano and Tom Sutcliffe.
Braver New World is out this Thursday!

Delighted to share the first lineup of events in the UK and Ireland for my new book, Braver New World, starting next month. More to be added so stay tuned tuned.
At a time democracies seem paralysed by fear and populations are turning inward, how can we confront our shared challenges with bravery and imagination?

Berlin, Berlin. Last night at a moving Russian Orthodox Christmas service, the exiled Archpriest issued a softly-spoken call for peace. Aggression, he said, runs counter to Christian teaching
