We're all familiar with the British House of Commons, but have you ever experienced a House of Commons debate live? We're offering two gripping House of Commons debates on current topics that invite you to think along and join the conversation!

“Democracy and the Future of Social Security—A House of Commons Debate” (Start: 6:30 p.m.)
What reforms are needed for pension, health, and long-term care insurance to remain sustainable in the long term in light of demographic change? Why are necessary reforms often so difficult to implement politically? Join experts from various disciplines in discussing which solutions are fair and sustainable. 

“Democracy in the Digital Age—A House of Commons Debate” (Start: 8:00 p.m.)
Join experts from Friedrich Schiller University in Jena in a discussion about the challenges digitalization poses for democracy. What opportunities and risks do new technologies such as artificial intelligence present? Are there fair and effective solutions to these challenges? 


Both events thrive on dialogue: The audience is warmly invited to take a stand and join the debate.
