Rethinking Civil Society: Advancing Human Rights in an Era of New Demographics

James Joseph, Emeritus Professor of the Practice of Public Policy, Duke University Sanford School of Public Policy, and former U.S. Ambassador to South Africa, examines new approaches to democracy, leadership development, and civic narratives as demographics change, with a focus on the role of philanthropy in advancing human rights. His remarks are followed by a panel discussion with Atlanta leaders. This session was part of the Nonprofit Issues Forum, an occasional series of events in Atlanta featuring notable speakers and panel discussions that explore topics and issues vital to the health and growth of the nonprofit sector.
