Sustaining Peace in a Changing International Environment
International Conference
16-17 November 2026
University of Graz, Austria
The international post-war order faces mounting challenges as a growing number of states pursue narrow national interests at the expense of shared agreements and multilateral frameworks. Simultaneously, the institutions mandated to safeguard international peace and security are struggling to adequately represent the growing diversity of voices within the international community. These pressures are compounded by the climate crisis, global pollution and the loss of biodiversity, which deepen the vulnerabilities of political communities worldwide. Against this backdrop, the conference examines whether and how international peace strategies can be adapted to meet the demands of a rapidly changing geopolitical environment.
