In October 2019 TRT World organised its third annual TRT Word Forum under the theme “Globalisation in Retreat: Challenges and Opportunities”. During the two-day forum more than 1500 esteemed speakers and guests, including politicians, academics, journalists and members of civil society engaged in stimulating discussions on the challenges that lay before our world. This book includes summaries and highlights of 8 public sessions, 3 exclusive talks, and 15 closed sessions of the TRT World Forum 2019.
