A day dedicated to societal challenges

Malmö University invites you to a full-day program on June 16 at Niagara, designed to promote dialogue, knowledge sharing, and collaboration on current societal challenges. We offer an open and inclusive meeting place where academic knowledge, critical thinking, and social engagement converge. Through conversation and collaboration, we strengthen our role as a university in the heart of the city, at the center of the conversation, where we contribute together to the development of democracy. The focus is on program elements that contribute to knowledge about and for democracy and that promote dialogue and the exchange of knowledge.

The programe is free of charge and everyone is welcome.

Organizers

Malmö University is collaborating with the City of Malmö on Malmö Meets, the City of Malmö’s platform for strengthening democratic dialogue in a time of growing societal challenges. Guided by the values of courage, hope, and new solutions, Malmö Meets will bring together stakeholders from academia, civil society, culture, business, and the public sector on June 12–18, 2026, to explore questions such as: What is democracy? What is under threat? What can we do about it—and how do we stay united as a society?
