This event is dedicated to exploring the responsibility of universities (and its members) to engage with society in times when there is pressure for universities to get actively engaged with global matters and events. What constitutes a legitimate reason for universities to speak out on particular issues publicly and what is the impact of such political positioning within and outside a university community? Do such actions turn universities into political actors, and if so, does it compromise the core values of academia, such as academic freedom?

2 May 2024 on "Universities between nationalism and globalism" with Dr. Simon Marginson and Dr. Attila Pausits
