This cycle of conferences on “Europe and Asia: Constructions and Interactions” aims to understand and explain the dynamics of the relationship between Europe and Asia in its multiple dimensions, focusing on the contribution of this relationship to the mutual knowledge of peoples and to the enrichment of societies on both continents and the world.
The cycle includes 15 lectures by prestigious national and foreign academics, between February and May 2023, at UAL, covering a wide range of topics. Through the reflections presented by the speakers and the debates, the aim is to give participants a deeper and more comprehensive understanding of pluralism and the richness of the ties that connect Europe and Asia, as well as its potential in building a common future.
