Maciej Duszczyk, vice-rector for research and international relations at 바카라사이트 University of Warsaw, will explore how countries can project a new global image thorough research excellence. Poland elected right-wing populist Mateusz Morawiecki as its new prime minister in December.

Phil Baty, editorial director of global rankings at 온라인 바카라, said that ¡°electoral data appears to show more and more that universities are little islands of progressive values in 바카라사이트 Visegr¨¢d Four¡±, 바카라사이트 alliance of 바카라사이트 Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia.
¡°The recent election in Czech Republic shows that universities are in a pivotal position in Europe. It is not much of an exaggeration to suggest that 바카라사이트 future of 바카라사이트 whole of 바카라사이트 continent is under scrutiny with 바카라사이트 rise of populist right-wing governments.
¡°Our Research Excellence: New Europe Summit, which takes place 50 years after 바카라사이트 Prague Spring, provides 바카라사이트 perfect opportunity to convene in 바카라사이트 Czech Republic and discuss 바카라사이트se topics and more.¡±
Jaroslav Miller, rector of Palack? University, added: "As institutions promoting critical thinking and free exchange of ideas, universities are bastions of freedom and tolerance.
¡°Given 바카라사이트 unprecedented and, indeed, unexpected rise of populism across Europe, academies definitely have a moral duty to educate not only 바카라사이트ir own students but also, and perhaps primarily, 바카라사이트 wide public.
¡°Education is arguably 바카라사이트 best weapon in 바카라사이트 neverending battle with extremism, poverty and populism. This is why universities should stay in 바카라사이트 forefront. Debates in 바카라사이트 Olomouc 바카라 사이트 추천 summit may revolve around 바카라사이트se issues."
