Political polarisation is reshaping democracies worldwide, undermining trust and cooperation. This event presents findings from an interdisciplinary project developing practical tools to diagnose affective polarisation, understand its drivers and identify pathways to depolarisation. Drawing on research in Argentina and Ecuador, the discussion will explore how evidence-based, participatory approaches can strengthen democratic dialogue and inform policymakers, civil society and citizens.
