Invisible Nation: Why Taiwan must be included in International Organizations. Global governance is at a crossroads. This conversation will imagine what a more representative international order could look like — one that includes Taiwan and other marginalized countries in institutions like the United Nations, World Health Organization, and Interpol. Experts will debate pathways for reform to make international institutions more inclusive and effective with Taiwan’s role as a key focus. The speakers will be announced soon.

About Invisible Nation: Unprecedented access to Taiwan’s first female president, Tsai Ing-wen, centers this portrait of the constantly colonized island, as it struggles to preserve its hard-won democracy, autonomy, and freedom from fear of authoritarian aggression. Thorough, incisive, and bristling with tension, Invisible Nation is a living account of Tsai’s tightrope walk as she balances the hopes and dreams of her nation between the colossal geopolitical forces of the U.S. and China. Invisible Nation captures Tsai at work in her country’s vibrant democracy, while seeking full international recognition of Taiwan’s right to exist. At a time when Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has demonstrated the ever-present threat of authoritarian aggression around the world, Invisible Nation brings a punctual focus to the struggles of Taiwan.
