Global South perspectives on NATO

• Date: 17 June
• Time: 12:30 - 14:00
• Location: International Institute of Social Studies, Aula B

With the entire city buzzing with events in the run-up to the NATO summit taking place in The Hague on 25 and 26 June, it is striking how little attention is being paid to voices from the Global South.

The International Institute for Social Studies and Leiden University are turning the tables and putting the South's perspectives on NATO at the center of this event.

Panelists will highlight questions such as:

How is NATO viewed from the Global South?
What should NATO's engagement with the South be?
