Summer and winter semester 24/25

A turbulent and extremely busy election year awaits the Free State of Saxony. The people of Saxony will be asked to vote three times. In these times of social change and global challenges, the topic of "social cohesion" is becoming more of a focus of public debate than ever before.

This is the starting point for this year's series of TUD ^Lectures+, which is being conceived in collaboration with the TUD's Custody Department and the YOU ASK we explain format of the Dresden Faculty of Medicine, the Dresden Project Space Galerie Ursula Walter. Several events will take place in Dresden, as well as in Saxony, focusing on topics such as science, dignity, pride, virtue, honor, truth, climate, homeland, migration, demography, identity, gender and global politics and encouraging discussion. Some events take place open air in busy squares, others in locations such as farm stores, theaters or canteens. Thanks to the cooperation with the "YOU ASK we explain" format, podcasts will be produced of numerous lectures in order to reach interested listeners beyond regional borders. The project is supported musically by the Banda Comunale in Dresden and the jazz duo consisting of Patrick Neumann and Jo Aldinger.
