This year’s Transatlantic Student Summit (TSS) Lecture Series convenes students, experts, and practitioners from the fields of American Studies, Global Mass Communication, Political Science, and International Relations. From multidisciplinary angles, we will be looking at transformations in the global order, but also changes within our regional societies. These include challenges but also chances for the transatlantic relationship. One focus will lay on the implications of climate change for global and regional policy making.
Lecture 1: June 7, 2022, 6pm, at DAI Sachsen (Markt 9, Leipzig), and via Zoom
