Roundtables: Transnational Perspectives on Academic Freedom

This event brings together experts and researchers to examine the challenges facing academic freedom in global and European contexts.

The day begins with a keynote from Stephanie Balme (Sciences Po Paris), presenting insights from her report Defending and Promoting Academic Freedom: A Global Issue, an Urgent Matter for France and Europe, followed by a Q&A session.

The event will be followed by two roundtable discussions :

How do academic freedoms erode and what can be done ?

How do French and German institutions abroad navigate the shoals of illiberal pressures on academic freedoms
