The annual conference “Dialogues on Democracy” brings together leading thinkers, policymakers, and experts to discuss the most pressing challenges to democracy and security in Central and Southeastern Europe—and beyond, across Europe and the transatlantic sphere.
This year’s theme, “European Security in Difficult Times,” examines Europe’s role in shaping current strategies within a complex world order.
The two-day program features high-level discussions with academics, policymakers, and civil society representatives from across the region and promises to be a stimulating meeting with world-class experts.
The Konrad Adenauer Foundation panel will address the topic of “European Cooperation on the Eastern Flank.” The panel will be moderated by John Florescu, CEO of Centrade. Speakers include Dr. Stefan Hofmann, Christoph Plate, Dr. Yevhen Hlibovytskyi from Pro-Mova, and Dr. Daniel Lemmen.
