EHU organizes the international scientific conference “Europe After War”. Make sure to register!

The Conference will take place on 27-28 February 2024 and will focus on the changes that await Europe after the end of the full-scale war between Russia and Ukraine. Experts will examine how state relations, economics, and world education are changing.

The conference is organized by EHU in partnership with leading European universities from Ukraine, Poland, Cyprus, Austria, and Kyrgyzstan, as well as the Open Society University Network (OSUN).

“Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine has tested Europe’s and the world’s integrity, understanding, and foresight. The need to change the institutional architecture of Europe is clear. The UN, OSCE, ICC, and ICRC have demonstrated their slowness and sometimes unwillingness to make quick and effective decisions. Organizations such as the EU and NATO must change their decision-making system by moving to a qualified decision-making procedure for the sake of dynamism and efficiency”, — the EHU conference’s organizers say.

Main topics of the conference:

  • Philosophy and social theory: shaping a new era of social uncertainty.
  • Political Studies: Adaptation of Institutions to Changing Circumstances.
  • Legal Studies: the new configuration of the world order and rational scenarios for exiting war.
  • European engagement in Ukraine’s post-war reconstruction: strategies to support structural reforms and fight corruption.
  • Art after the war: the impact of the war’s outcome on artistic creation in Europe.
  • Gender: the role of gender norms and role stereotypes in war and peace.
  • Media and the information landscape during the war.
