Program

How the world is changing

World is changing at mind-boggling speed and things look very different from the way they did just a year or two ago.

Using an analytical and diplomatic approach, the workshop ““How the world is changing” will allow students to debate some of the main issues in contemporary geopolitical and geoeconomic dynamics, such as BRICS, Global South, Economic Security, and keep their worldview up to date.

During the 3-day workshop, students will have the opportunity to:

· have an in-depth understanding of specific key topics of international relations and geopolitics;

· develop their critical and analytical skills and better understand what happens in the world;

· share their ideas and join in with active discussions with lecturers.

Monday 8 April, 6.15-7.45pm
