Session 1: November 17, 2026 | 12:00 PM ET
Session 2: November 18, 2026 | 13:00 CEST

From Brazil to Serbia to the U.S., the elections of 2026 will shape the geopolitical landscape for years to come. This webinar explores key themes observed across elections including the limitations of the limitations of right-wing populism, how Gen Z is impacting global politics and the state of democracy in a rapidly changing world.
Join Ryan Grace, Geopolitical Analyst II at Intel 471, as he breaks down:
- The US blue wave and its ramifications — how Democratic success in the US midterm elections is a clear response to the ‘America First’ strategy of the last two years and what it means for US foreign policy.
- Wither right-wing populism? — elections across the globe indicate possible limitations to this movement, though signs show it's far from lost in Europe and Latin America.
- The ‘Gen Z Movement’ — waves of protests across the globe show a mobilized youth challenging the status quo, but where and how will this activism force change?
- The state of democracy — what do antidemocratic politics, AI and information operations mean for electoral institutions, now and in the future?
By evaluating these competing themes across elections globally, this webinar aims to highlight how elections have altered the geopolitical landscape and how it will impact 2027.
