Dear colleagues and community members,

Global dynamics are changing, and understanding these shifts is essential for our work in foreign affairs. We invite you to attend the upcoming panel discussion:
“From Globalization to Deglobalization?”

Why This Matters for Our Mission

Globalization has shaped international cooperation, trade, and diplomacy for decades. Today, signs of deglobalization—reduced interdependence and increased national focus—are emerging. These trends influence:

  • Trade and Economic Policy
  • Migration and Mobility
  • Climate Agreements and Security Frameworks

Understanding these developments helps us anticipate challenges and adapt strategies for effective international engagement.

Key Questions

Is globalization truly on the decline?

Is this a positive development or a cause for concern?
