New publication «An der strategischen Kreuzung» (At the strategic crossroads)

In April 2026, our annual book will get published with the title "An der strategischen Kreuzung"

The global situation remains turbulent. Accordingly, the SIAF's programme in 2025 continued to focus on the themes of freedom, security and democracy. However, we also found space for a memorial service for Peter von Matt and for additional topics such as trust and responsibility.
Once again, interesting guests shed light on the past, present and possible future in this context.
