In the aftermath of Cyprus Forum 2025, conversations around democracy, civic participation, and disinformation continue to resonate strongly. In an interview with Philenews, Dr. Dominik Hierlemann, Senior Expert at Germany’s Bertelsmann Stiftung and guest speaker at the Forum, reflected on the urgent need for democracies to reconnect with citizens by addressing real and everyday needs—improving education, healthcare, and overall quality of life.

The press conference for the forthcoming Cyprus Forum 2025 was successfully held today, Wednesday 24 September 2025, at the Stelios Foundation in Nicosia. The event brought together journalists and media representatives, providing details about the programme and the objectives of this year’s forum.
