Our newly introduced Alumni Regional Security Conversations aim to spread awareness and increase the knowledge of our community members on current regional challenges and potential future threats. Once a month, we bring alumni professionals to the table to unravel situations in certain parts of our world.

The GCSP’s powerful international community of alumni is a unique source of knowledge, innovation and leadership in international security policy. With their wide range of backgrounds, perspectives, and job functions, they have the ability to bring in insightful and ground-based evidence on current issues.

By actively scanning our alumni pool of experts, the GCSP Community Engagement team composes the panels of introductory presentations.
This year, we tackled a wide variety of regional challenges:

• Syria: 12 Years of Conflict and Counting. What are the Regional Security Dynamics?
• Security Implications on Central Asia after the Taliban Takeover in Afghanistan
• India - an Influencing Power in the New World Order
• The Challenges of Stability and Security in West Africa
• Risks in the Information Space – Tackling Challenging Digital Norms in Relations to the War in Ukraine
• DRC at Crossroads: What Path Towards Sustainable Peace
• Next on 7 December: How will Climate Change and the War in Ukraine Impact Arctic Governance?

Move over to Alumni Publications where you can retro-actively view the speaker presentations of these conversations!
