This year’s Munich Peace Conference is themed “Against the Current of Violence”. Well-known participants are expected again, including Kristin Helberg, Deborah Feldman, Simon David Dressler, Dr. Shir Hever.
Last year’s most prominent speaker, Francesca Albanese, is to be awarded an honorary doctorate by three Belgian universities (Ghent, Brussels, Antwerp). An interesting development, considering that LMU had cancelled an event with Ms. Albanese at short notice in February 2025.
On Sunday, 2026-02-15, 11:00 AM, Fabian Scheidler will read from his book “Friedenstüchtig – Wie wir aufhören können, unsere Feinde selbst zu schaffen” (Peace-Capable – How We Can Stop Creating Our Own Enemies). Our current project newspaper features a book review by Christoph Steinbrink on page 15.
We invite you to once again give your attention to the Munich Peace Conference this year! MSKv will have an information stand.
