In Pursuit of Knowledge: The threat to our global public institutions
Episode 1: The threat to our global public institutions
The first in a new series by the University of Melbourne to encourage informed respectful discussion around the critical issues of our times.
As the world faces escalating political crises, and society grapples with many complex issues, the need for informed, rational, and respectful dialogue is essential.
Please join us in person or online for our new series In Pursuit of Knowledge, where a panel of experts will lead an informed and considered discussion around the critical issues of our times.
The series kicks off on Thursday 29 August by asking, are our global public institutions failing us?
With the world in seemingly endlessly escalating crises, what role do our global public institutions such as the United Nations and the International Court of Justice play?
Do our global public institutions have any real powers, and are they able to manage conflict in the way in which they were designed?
Hosted by broadcaster and Vice-Chancellor’s Fellow Jon Faine the series will invite experts in their fields across a range of areas to discuss the important global issues facing our society.
