The ESC’s 2020-21 theme, Creating Europe, explores both the political, social, cultural, and geographical forces that have given shape to contemporary Europe and also individuals who create and are creative in their daily or artistic expressions of what it means to be European. In celebration of German Campus Week, this month’s Conversations on Europe focuses on topic of cultural diversity in Germany and how the European nation has aimed to create inclusive community building. Our virtual roundtable will discuss successes, failures, and the future of Germany’s diverse communities.
