International Conference HGGS Summer & Winter Forum

The Winter Forum is the annual meeting of the HGGS and offers new members the opportunity to introduce themselves with short presentations to participants from the six HGGS faculties. The Forum also offers its over 100 members from more than 30 countries the opportunity to network with other young researchers and academics and regularly invites guests from Germany and abroad. The HGGS Summer Forum is an interdisciplinary conference organised by doctoral candidates in collaboration with the academic coordinator of the HGGS. It enables members of the Graduate School to discuss central scientific questions from different disciplinary perspectives and to rethink their own scientific work in dialogue with experts and invited guests from leading research universities in Europe and abroad. In recent years, the topics of the forum have been ‘’Risks and Opportunities of the 21st Century‘’, ‘’Interdisciplinary Research‘’ and interdisciplinary concepts such as ‘’Mobility‘’, ‘’Space‘’, ‘’Change‘’, ‘’Communication and ‘’Identities‘’.
