Arianna Huffington Speaks At Davos About Journalism, Activism, ‘Pop And Policy’

Solving critical problems doesn’t have to be left up to political big wigs — given the right tools, everyday people can create change, Arianna Huffington noted at the World Economic Forum.

In Davos, Switzerland on Thursday, Huffington Post’s President and Editor-in-Chief held a discussion about the role of journalism and pop culture in finding solutions to global crises. She spoke with the team from Global Citizen, a platform that provides the public with ways to help end extreme poverty, and Roy Sekoff, President of HuffPost Live.

Huffington reiterated the role of the news media in highlighting solutions that are working. When asked if journalism can help end poverty, she answered “absolutely.”
