The changes in the world order that have been advancing for years, the growing threat potential posed by hybrid warfare, and, not least, the Russian war of aggression raise a number of fundamental questions in German foreign, security, and defense policy. In order to find well-considered and efficient answers to these questions, synergies between politics and science are essential.

What is the role of universities in this context? What is the significance of their research in Germany's security architecture? What is the potential of political-scientific cooperation and is it currently being used exhaustively by universities and ministries?

Together with the German Academic Exchange Service, the Henry Kissinger Professorship for Security and Strategy Research at CASSIS at the University of Bonn is organizing this event to bring together the political and academic cosmos in a discussion event and to discuss common paths.
