MPIL Agora

The MPIL Agora is the dedicated forum for our visiting scholars to present and discuss their current research with other visiting scholars and permanent staff at the Institute. The Agora generally takes place once a month on a Wednesday afternoon and consists of one or two modules. Each module lasts one hour and includes a lecture (approximately 30 minutes) plus subsequent discussion. The Agora is curated by Armin von Bogdandy. All visiting scholars who will be with us for more than a month are requested to contact Malcolm Jorgensen, in order to reserve a speaking date and discuss the further procedure. Please note that eligibility to participate in the Agora can only be confirmed once guests have stayed at the Institute for at least one month.

For previous sessions, please check the Archive.
