In this episode, Yara Bayoumy, National Security Editor at The Atlantic leads a discussion on the future of international institutions with Lord Mark Malloch Brown, former Deputy Secretary-General and Chief of Staff for the UN and Sir Malcolm Rifkind, former Foreign Secretary and Defence Secretary. Together they debate the role that institutions such as the United Nations and the World Health Organisation should play in the current Covid-19 crisis, explore how they can build authority and legitimacy, and discuss how this unforeseen experience has put governments in a “hugely better position” to react to future pandemics.
