Policy & Pizza: Careers in the Diplomatic Sector & Youth Engagement in EU Politics

Join guest speaker & German diplomat Jan Nagel and Prof. Dr. Christine Reh for a Policy & Pizza session discussing careers in the diplomacy, and youth engagement in European affairs.

Do the current events and crises that dominate the headlines keep you up at night? Do you ever wish that someone would help you make sense of it all? Our professors here at the Hertie School are there for you, and they've even brought pizza.

Join guest speaker Jan Nagel, Hertie alumn and current desk officer at the German Federal Foreign Office, and Prof. Dr. Christine Reh for a Policy & Pizza session discussing careers in the diplomacy, and youth engagement in EU affairs and the upcoming EU elections. They will also be joined by current PhD student Francesca Minetto, one of the founders of FuturEU, an initiative aimed at boosting student involvement in European affairs. As with our ‘Policy and Pizza’ sessions, this is an opportunity to engage directly with practitioners and leaders shaping the world of policy and international relations in a meaningful way. Bring your questions!

This discussion is being held in collaboration with the Jacques Delors Centre and the Erasmus Student Network. The event is public and will be hosted at the Forum of the Hertie School in Berlin. There will be no live stream. Due to limited seating, registration is appreciated.

Free drinks and pizza will be served from 6:00 pm, and the talk will begin at 6:30 pm.
