BeCOIL complementary program for cooperation in international projects
Our complementary program offers a laid-back environment for students to share their experiences in intercultural project work in three meetings. We use the experiences and impressions of all participants to gain practical tips for our own projects and to learn from each other. At the first meeting in May ( Thu. 02.05. from 17:15 - 19:30) (online) we will get to know each other and discuss cultural competencies and how "good" online communication can succeed in international projects. We will also look at possible challenges that may arise. At the second meeting at the beginning of June (Thurs. 06.06. from 16:15 - 17:45) (online) we will exchange initial experiences in order to be able to address possible challenges during the COIL projects. At the last meeting in July ( Wed. 17.07. from 18:15 - 19:45) (face-to-face event) we will see each other live. So bring a cool soda with you! Together we will take another look at your projects and also consider how the experience you have gained can be useful for your future academic career. You might even come up with concrete plans for implementing new ideas! And here is a direct link to the moodle course: https://hu.berlin/BeCOIL-Begleitprogramm
Wissenschaftsdiplomatie – Was kann Universität in Zeiten von sich verschärfenden Konflikten leisten?
Die Arabistik lädt ein zum Vortrag mit anschließender kritischer Diskussion: Wissenschaftsdiplomatie – Was kann Universität in Zeiten von sich verschärfenden Konflikten leisten? Wissenschaft und Bildung im Irak stärken: Grenzen und Potenziale von Wissenschaftsdiplomatie Prof. Dr. Heike Wendt (Universität Graz) Wissenschaft ist ein globales öffentliches Gut und inklusive, demokratische und nachhaltige Lösungen für Schlüsselprobleme unserer Zeit lassen sich nur in einem weltweiten Wissenschaftssystem finden. Die Erforschung von Menschheits- und Wissenschaftsgeschichte, Auswirkungen von Klimawandel, Krieg und Sanktionen auf Natur und Gesellschaft lassen sich ohne eine Betrachtung des Iraks nicht valide erforschen. Zukunftsweisende Forschung verlangt ein Engagement jenseits der Feldpflege, um die Voraussetzungen für einen gleichberechtigten wissenschaftlichen Diskurs zu sichern, an dem Expert*innen auf Augenhöhe teilnehmen können. Hier kann Wissenschaftsdiplomatie einen wichtigen Beitrag leisten. Prof. Dr. Heike Wendt verantwortet seit zehn Jahren Bildungspartnerschaften mit Universitäten im Nordirak. Anschließend Podiumsdiskussion mit Prof. Dr. Elke Sh. Hartmann (Freie Universität Berlin, Osmanistik und Turkologie), Prof. Dr. Konstantin M. Klein (Universität Amsterdam; AGYA); Dr. Florian Kohstall (Freie Universität Berlin, Center for International Cooperation; AGYA). Moderation: Prof. Dr. Isabel Toral (Freie Universität Berlin, Arabistik, BGSMCS) Rahmenprogramm : Memory Spaces – Impressionen einer Reise (Fotos)

“Rethinking global challenges – Sustainable Energies” - workshop and networking event
Location: EINS - Innovationsplattform und Coworkingspace Ernst-Reuter-Platz 1, 10587 Berlin
3rd annual symposium of the Oxford Berlin Research Partnership: Futures – new knowledge for a complex world
In a world of constant change, there is a pressing need for all of us to re-imagine likely challenges and scenarios to address the future. Are we equipped to do just that? While global challenges like climate change and migration need global solutions, we are in danger of returning to the old world of geopolitical rivalry, capitalist instability, nationalist self-assertion, and major wars. As Einstein said, “we cannot solve our problems with the same level of thinking that created them” – but we are in danger of doing just that. In this event, thinkers from Berlin, Oxford and beyond are coming together in the iconic Humboldt Forum to look at likely futures for a complex world where the ‘old’ and the ‘new’ interact uneasily. They chart the move from global challenges to planetary imperatives and the impact of new technologies and of new forms of knowledge (on democratic development, on health, on new forms of energy and ideas of social organisation and the built environment as well as utopias). We would like to invite you to join us on Wednesday, 3 July 2024 at the Humboldt-Forum for an allday programme looking at different aspects of ‘futures’ in our joint research disciplines: STEM, the Medical Sciences, the Social Sciences, and the Arts and Humanities. Please find the programme attached and register for the event by 21 June.
