Parag Khanna

Parag Khanna is a global strategist whose work focuses on understanding how geography, demographics, and urbanization are reshaping our world. Through his research and speaking, he examines the evolving nature of countries, borders, and human settlement patterns in an increasingly connected yet fragmented global landscape.

His expertise centers on mapping future geopolitical scenarios and analyzing how megacities are fundamentally altering traditional notions of national boundaries and governance. Khanna explores critical questions about where and how humans will live as climate change, technology, and economic forces drive massive population shifts.

His presentations at multiple TED conferences spanning over a decade demonstrate his sustained focus on these interconnected themes of geography, urbanization, and global strategy.
