In early January, the group Academics for Peace, made up of Turkish and international academics, started a campaign to oppose the armed conflict in the Kurdish region of southeastern Turkey and call on the Turkish government to return to the negotiating table. Since then, many members of the campaign, some of them former guests of the WZB, have experienced intimidation, dismissal and criminal prosecution.

Abstract

This project is part of a Horizon 2020 consortium of nine academic institutions to analyze the cultural, science and innovation policy of the EU in a comparative perspective over a three year period starting in March 2016 (“EL-CSID: European Leadership in Cultural, Science and Innovation policy”). It will focus on how different actors such as national governments, supra- and transnational institutions, NGOs and international organizations engage science in their external relations by looking into their respective objectives, strategies, programs and instruments for science diplomacy.
