Foreign Policy in Times of Crisis – Lessons from Bandung
May 28 @ 3:00 pm - 4:30 pm
Join us on May 28 at BCIS at 3.00 pm.
As the world transcends through a whirlwind of polycrisis – multiple crises in the economic, ecological and geo-political realms, small states like Sri Lanka are striving to safeguard their economic and political autonomy. Deeply entrenched in debt crises, striking a balance is difficult.
The 70th anniversary of the Afro-Asian Conference held in Bandung, Indonesia, in 1955 is an opportune moment to ponder foreign policy making while reflecting on what lessons Bandung offers.
Mr. H. M. G. S. Palihakkara, retired diplomat and Mr. Shiran Illanperuma, political economist at the Tricontinental: Institute for Social Research, will initiate this discussion at BCIS on May 28 at 3.00 pm.
