Asia Talks

Die fortlaufende Reihe Asia Talks bietet die Chance, die Qualität und Quantität faktenbasierter Informationen über Grenzen und Disziplinen hinweg zu erhöhen. Die Online-Talks befassen sich sich mit relevanten Themen, wie der sicherheitspolitischen Lage in Ost-Asien, Gender-Fragen im Zusammenhang mit Klimawandel sowie dem Einfluss der Pandemie auf Kunst, Architektur und Arbeitsmodelle. Diskutiert wird mit wechselnden Gästen: Journalist:innen, Fachleuten von Think Tanks und Expert:innen aus Politik und gesellschaftsrelevanten Organisationen. Wir kommunizieren über Grenzen hinweg, ohne Grenzen physisch überschreiten zu müssen.

Alumni des Asien-Programms sind jederzeit eingeladen, die Asia Talks mit ihrer Fachkenntnis zu aktuellen regionalen Entwicklungen zu bereichern und so den Austausch über Grenzen hinweg weiter zu fördern.
