Nico Daswani, Head of Arts & Culture at the World Economic Forum discussed the role of cultural leaders in shaping society. Mr. Daswani shared insights on the support and promotion of artists through the World Economic Forum including New Narratives Lab, a year-long leadership fellowship for artists, dedicated to fostering a new and diverse generation of cultural leaders. Through one-to-one mentorship with experienced members of the World Economic Forum’s network of cultural leaders, fellows from under-represented communities will be supported to use the Forum’s resources to navigate circles of power and decision-making, create valuable alliances, learn how to make their voices heard and bring about change.
