Other Events - Public Deliberation Forums
In addition to its regular workshops, the WSSR also host a series of other events and public deliberation forums. These events are generally free of charge and open to everyone, but spaces are limited and you must register to attend.
Get informed. Ask questions. Get engaged! Activate your citizenship!
If you can't make it to our workshops, but really would like to hear from one of our many guest lecturers, perhaps you can catch them at one or more of our other events.
