As a #MSC2023 partner, our delegation will facilitate two events among the extensive official program of the conference:
“Show of Force or Just for Show? Fostering Resilience in Europe’s North-East” – a panel featuring the President of Latvia, Prime Minister of Norway and the Minister of Defense of Germany, moderated by Prof. Katarzyna Pisarska, Chair of Warsaw Security Forum at Casimir Pulaski Foundation (Fundacja im. Kazimierza Pułaskiego).
Closed-door dinner Breaking the vicious circle: Mapping views on the exit strategy for post-Putin Russia – the official Munich Security Conference side-event organised by the Warsaw Security Forum in partnership with the ICUV – International Centre for Ukrainian Victory.
The Munich Security Conference is the world’s leading forum for debating international security policy. It is a venue for diplomatic initiatives to address the world’s most pressing security concerns. Each year it brings together about 350 senior figures from more than 70 countries around the world to engage in an intensive debate on current and future security challenges.
The Warsaw Security Forum delegation will bring an extensive Central and Eastern European perspective to the table with the high-level policy makers from around the world, particularly in the context of the ongoing war waged by the Russian Federation.
Energy Security as the Foundation for a Just Transition in Post-Industrial Regions
The transformation of post-industrial regions toward sustainable, low-emission economies hinges on one critical factor: energy security. This theme, explored during a high-level panel discussion at the last edition of the Warsaw Security Forum, highlighted the need to transition from coal and other high-emission energy sources to cleaner alternatives such as renewable and nuclear energy. Achieving this shift will require not only technological innovation but also strategic planning, international cooperation, and robust regulatory frameworks.
