The Autumn Academy is an educational event aimed at eliciting and conceptualizing the evolving role of the North Atlantic Alliance in a changing security environment in the world.

Recent political, economic and environmental developments in the world point to significant shifts in the structure of contemporary international order as well as what may be seen as development of a new framework of global security. The main objective of the Academy will be identifying and clarifying the nature of these changes and NATO’s role in the new global security configuration.

The Academy is intended for undergraduate and graduate students from top-ranking universities from Ukraine and several other member and non-member states. The programme of the event consists of expert and students discussions, live video conferences with the NATO headquarters in Brussels and a simulation game.
