Shadow Battles: Proxy Wars and Their Global Consequences
Every Wednesday from 6:00-7:15 pm, you will have the chance to listen to lectures from experts across the world, participate in a workshop to build skills beneficial in an international conference environment, or take part in excursions. During the lectures, we will be looking at proxy wars and conflicts as well as their global consequences. After each lecture, there will be some time to discuss the topic. The workshops are aimed at imparting practical skills that are necessary in an international environment, particularly in the world of diplomacy. Last but not least, we will also visit the NRW Academy of International Affairs to get insights into their work.
Join us on Wednesdays at 6 PM for thought-provoking presentations, workshops, and excursions in person at the Hörsaal XII of the Main Building of the University of Bonn.

We invite lecturers from different academic and professional backgrounds to share their knowledge and experiences relating to the semester's theme. We want to make current happenings in politics, international affairs, and public policy come alive for students and friends of the University of Bonn.
​

Our weekly lecture series takes place on Wednesdays from 18:00h to 19:00h (6 to 7 p.m.) Berlin Time.
