Matthias Catón
The motto of this year’s Raisina Dialogue was “Provocation, Uncertainty, Turbulence – A Lighthouse in the Tempest?” Although the organisers wisely added a question mark, one thing is clear: India’s importance in the world will continue to rise, and with it, the significance of a dialogue such as the Raisina Dialogue.
Through the FS International Advisory Services, Frankfurt School is currently supporting the EU to enhance its dialogue with South Africa on peace, security, human rights and governance issues via the initiative: “Gateways for Peace: EU-South Africa partnership for peace and security”. The aim is to promote and deepen a mutual understanding between the EU and South Africa.

Dr. Alexander Lehmann
Asia accounts for more than half of global greenhouse gas emissions and lies at the front line of increasingly frequent and severe climate disasters.

Due to Covid-19 mobility restrictions, face-to-face engagements were not possible. Instead, we continued to promote awareness of green technologies through a series of Podcasts and Radio Interviews to reach out to rural farmers and agri-enterprises in Tajikistan.
