Berlin Foreign Policy Forum

Turning Crisis into Opportunity? Europe in a (Post-) Pandemic World Order

24 November 2020, Berlin

The coronavirus crisis is not only affecting our daily lives, it is also contesting the pillars of German foreign policy: international cooperation, European integration and economic globalization. This potentially transformative crisis comes at a time when Germany holds the EU Council Presidency. Discussions about European solidarity, crisis management and reconstruction are on top of the presidency’s agenda. At the same time, other pressing issues will need to be addressed, such as relations with China and the United States. The Berlin Foreign Policy Forum will be an excellent opportunity to debate these challenges among a group of global foreign policy experts and decision-makers.

Since the wellbeing of our participants remains our primary concern, this year’s Berlin Forum will take place for the first time as a hybrid event with comprehensive online participation through our specially developed, invitation-only virtual conference platform. As every year, all sessions of the Berlin Forum will also be available to the public via livestream.
