This year’s EPTA Conference takes place in the German Bundestag on 17 October 2022 in Berlin, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
What do leapfrog innovations, 9/11, a possible collapse of the Gulf Stream, and the COVID-19 pandemic have in common? The answer is: disruption! Using three exemplary topics „Critical infrastructures“, „Autonomous weapon systems“ and „Forests“, the Conference highlights some of the many facets of disruption and will explore the question of what contribution TA has made and can continue to make to the political and social handling of disruptions.
Interested parties are cordially invited to attend. Further information on the programme and registration here.
