Distinguished Lecture by Prof. Siddharth Chatterjee
We are living through a "polycrisis" where the traditional levers of global governance are stalling. As the world grapples with geoeconomic fragmentation and the risk of a "New Cold War," the relationship between China and the rest of the world has become the defining axis of 21st-century stability. In this Distinguished Lecture, Siddharth Chatterjee explores how the Asia-Pacific—led by the complex interplay of China’s global rise—can move from a site of competition to a cornerstone of a revitalized international system.
Protecting Cultural Heritage through Development
Join us for this insightful seminar by Professor Józef Hernik on May 5. There is currently interest in Europe in the existing links between heritage landscapes and environmental development. In the landscape research, the following question is becoming increasingly relevant: what steps should be taken in the near future to implement the recommendations of the European Landscape Convention? In addition, efforts are being made to anticipate major environmental challenges, such as the transformation of agricultural policy, increasing urbanization, and climate and demographic changes.
