I spent the week of Davos (January 20-24) working in the World Economic Forum’s Davos newsroom, liveblogging sessions and covering the event for Agenda and social media. Here are my pieces from the week:

‘What was feared and what was warned…is here.’ Australian filmmaker’s devastating message on climate change (January 21, 2020) – Australian artist and filmmaker Lynette Wallworth set the tone for the week’s discussions on climate change.

This psychologist is using science and data to beat racism (January 23, 2020) – Dr. Phillip Atiba Goff of the Center for Policing Equity has a fascinating and very important explanation for how we can actually get rid of racism.

What they’re saying about the future of work: key quotes from Davos (January 24, 2020) – Or, what Ivanka Trump said at Davos.

What we know about the coronavirus and urgent plans to develop a vaccine (January 24, 2020) – Don’t say we didn’t warn you…back in January. (And, by the way, this article was published before the coronavirus had it’s official name.)
