Panel discussion

When reading the newspaper, there is hardly a day without geopolitical topics dominating the headlines. Geopolitics is not only prevalent in Danish public discourse as a topic, but it also simultaneously shapes the conditions of the discourse: What communication infrastructure is in place? What are the rules of communication? Which fora become important? Who gets involved, and what impact can these discussions ultimately unfold?

Styregruppen for Den Geopolitiske Kommunikation på Institut for Kommunikation inviterer til paneldebat, hvor de har inviteret eksperter fra forskellige områder til podiet for at diskutere den komplekse relation mellem geopolitik og kommunikation i verden i dag.
