Discussion

Cooperation in Transition – Opportunities and Risks of International Collaboration

Monday, 05 May 2025, 18:00-19:30
Foyer des Präsidiumsgebäude (Geb.11.30)

Higher education collaborations promote the exchange of knowledge, build cultural bridges and strengthen the global connectivity of research and teaching. But how can strategic partnerships be identified? What factors play a role? How do we develop alliances in countries where academic freedoms and other democratic values are under threat? And how can existing, trust-based partnerships be expanded, especially at a time of heightened geopolitical tensions?

 

At the panel discussion “Cooperation in Transition – Opportunities and Risks of International Collaboration" with subsequent audience participation, we would like to discuss with you the challenges and success models of international higher education cooperation

  • Dr. Tanja Popović, Head International Office (IO), University of Basel
  • Dr. Pradeep Ghosh, Head of International Cooperation & Programme Manager at FAIR (Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research in Europe GmbH), Darmstadt
  • Lea Ziri, Director of International, European and Cross-Borders Affairs at Upper-Alsace University, Mulhouse
  • Dr. Klaus Rümmele, Head of International Affairs Business Unit (INTL), Karlsruhe Institute of Technology
