BSIS International Conference 2022 edition brought academics, policymakers and practitioners from business, civil society and other international organisations to reflect upon some key issues shaping the battlefields of the future. Listen to the three panels in this limited Podcast series.
Has the development agenda enacted by the Global North throughout the twentieth century until today fostered solutions for long term sustainable development, or has this interference in foreign countries only continued the exploitation seen during colonial times?
The panel will be composed of experts from civil society groups, the policy-making sphere and the private sector which will represent different postures of the debate to critically discuss the state of the modern-day development agenda and talk about potential solutions.

Panel I: Climate Change, Security, and Migration
The effects of climate change already have, and will increasingly have a significant impact on the practice and discourse of security policy. This includes measures states, regions or cities have to take in the transition from assessing climate threats towards climate adaptation, already taking place in several countries as climate-related disasters have proliferated, as well as those measures neighbouring regions or states have to take in dealing with anticipated flows of migration or increase in conflict in areas affected by climate change.
