This year`s topic is: Europe in crisis mode: Legitimacy – Leadership – Equipment

Europe’s politics and society focus on many crises, currently the challenges posed by Corona. So far unknown practised legal, ethical, and security-related questions arise. Demonstrations in some European countries show that not all parts of the population support their government’s path in combating the pandemic concerning its duration, extent and intensity. But security issues that were important before Covid-19 are still on the agenda. Migration, right-wing extremist structures and dangers from cyberspace concern security agencies in Europe to the same dimension during the pandemic.

The congress will take place September, 14 and 15 in Berlin.
