Central Europe Matters
Central Europe Matters
Welcome to a brand-new, narrative podcast about society, politics and democracy in the heart of Europe. Meet local activists, experts, journalists, artists and others struggling to make sense of what's happening in their countries and of the turbulent times we live in. Between democratic backsliding, far-right populism, the ongoing legacy of 20th century experiments in totalitarianism, and a strategically vital location on the doorstep of Russia and Ukraine, Central Europe is ground zero for the battle over the future of Europe. ⠀ Season 1: Slovakia — Democracy under Attack launches in August 2026. ⠀ Central Europe Matters is an independent narrative podcast hosted by Jeff Lugowe, with generous support from the EEA Civil Society Fund Slovakia.
