Dialogue Forums

Dialogue Forums

We address current issues in public events and panel discussions held in Munich. Politicians, scientists and people affected by the issues take a look behind the scenes and discuss with forum participants. The Dialogue Forums have been held regularly since 2005. They are designed to raise public awareness of climate change/climate protection.
