First come first serve

Europe’s ability to act is shaped by how it handles risk. Incentives often reward caution over initiative, limiting decisive leadership – raising a critical question: can a system designed to avoid failure still produce decisive leadership? This hike examines risk across individual, institutional, and strategic levels, and how systems can shift to enable agency and responsibility.

//INFO: Wear sturdy shoes and bring drinking water.

//INFO: In case of heavy rain, the session is going to take place at CCA-Flora-Saal.
