World Science Café

Since 2016, the International Scholars and Welcome Office (IScO) has been organizing the World Science Café event series in cooperation with the ZAK of the KIT, in which refugees report on their scientific work. In the spirit of the café concept that gives the event its title, a discussion will take place in which the academic situation in the speaker's country of origin will be discussed together with partners who are familiar with the country. What was their everyday research life like? What are the consequences for society if academics are no longer able to conduct research in their home country and how can threatened researchers be enabled to continue their work in Germany?
