Symposium
Details
At its upcoming summit, NATO has a historic opportunity to open a new chapter in its over 70 years of history. The alliance faces a significantly changing security environment and shifting priorities of its member states. Thus, NATO has implemented an in-depth reflection process labelled ‘NATO 2030’ last year, which yielded a range of strategic-level propositions regarding the future direction and role of the alliance.
We would like to discuss the results of ‘NATO 2030’ with key actors of the reflection process at a digital panel discussion. The debate shall also consider which proposals should feed into the drafting process of a new NATO strategy, which should be officially launched at the next NATO summit.
Participants can join via Zoom. Please register through the button in the sidebar and we will share with you the log in details for the event.
