World Science Café
Since 2016, the International Scholars and Welcome Office (IScO) has been organizing the World Science Café event series, in which threatened researchers talk about their scientific work: What was their everyday research life like? What consequences does it have for society when scientists can no longer conduct research in their country and how can threatened researchers be enabled to continue their work in Germany?
