EXAMINING CRISIS AS A MEANS OF CHANGE, SOLIDARITY, PROPAGANDA, FAKE NEWS AND GLOBAL WARMING — Q BERLIN

EXAMINING CRISIS AS A MEANS OF CHANGE, SOLIDARITY, PROPAGANDA, FAKE NEWS AND GLOBAL WARMING — Q BERLIN

There are many pressing questions facing us both now and in the future. What consequences will the war in Ukraine have for global politics? How will we deal with pandemics in the future? And what role do metropolises like Berlin play in dealing with such global crises? Under the title “The New Unknown – Navigating Zeitenwende,” the fifth edition of Q Berlin 2022 kicks off in one week. After nearly a decade, the capital’s hybrid conference will return to the iconic ICC Berlin, focusing on the historical tipping point in which we are currently living. You can expect two exciting days full of discussions, lectures and panels on explosive topics and sensitive topics with local and global relevance. Opening with the two mayors of Paris and Berlin, Anne Hidalgo and Franziska Giffey, the stage belongs to international speakers, including Belarusian opposition leader Svyatlana Zikhanouskaya on stolen elections and democracy, journalist and moderator Marietta Slomka on fake news and propaganda, and architect Rem Koolhaas on his growing concerns of European self-isolation and the role of data hubs within urban infrastructure. Participate in shaping our future and follow the heated debates live in Berlin or online.
