Our Borderless Knowledge series and Hungarian news portal Qubit are launching their second joint essay competition for university and college students.
Borderless Knowledge
CEU’s Borderless Knowledge project, launched in 2019 and housed now at the CEU Democracy Institute, is based on the principle that knowledge belongs to everyone. That scientific breakthroughs and the latest research aiming to solve societal problems should not just be available to the public but should initiate a debate. So that we can find solutions to the world’s challenges, together, as a community.
In the open lecture series CEU professors, leading Hungarian experts and well-known public figures, discuss exciting recent scientific findings and their direct impact on our everyday lives. Most lectures are held in Hungarian, with simultaneous English translation provided.
You can find more information on the project’s website (in Hungarian), and more details about the upcoming events here. Recordings of the previous events are available here.
