Let the journey begin! I am heading to the continent, 1500 km by train for my first meeting with the @W_u_F scientific advisory board.
This also includes leaving at -14 degrees Celsius and arriving at my final destination with spring like temperatures.

Still traveling. The second day of my journey starts with breakfast while passing through Salzwedel, a town famous for its Baumkuchen.

After a welcoming meeting with the editorial team and the scientific advisory board of @W_u_F and an inspiring discussion on the challenges and self-positioning of peace and conflict studies, I am on may way back home. I very much enjoy and greatly appreciate these @W_u_F events due to their welcoming, inclusive and respectful attitude which is so rare in the academic circus.

@dorotheegoetze it was a real pleasure having had so many of our new @W_u_F scientific advisory board members present at #Berlin #RLS yesterday. The timely and critical questions of how engaged and counter-hegemonic understandings of peace research should be centered have been inspiring! @dsfrieden @IFSHHamburg @imi @zfk_mr
Thx @dorotheegoetze for your #criticalanalysis of the Swedish crisis preparedness discourse and the (sadly) minimal role peace and civil alternatives to a logic of war play in the #totalforsvar ...whoever wants to see the blueprint narrative drive for the current German debate and the logic of #integrierteSicherheit: look to the Swedish situation - and consider how a logic of #peace and civil alternatives is absent. Then ask questions...
