GAC Military Interaction Program

November 15 @ 8:00 am - November 17 @ 7:00 pm

The German American Conference at HKS is proud to host its “Military Interaction Program (MIP)” as part of its conference. First established in 2022, the MIP invites officer candidates of the US military and of the German Armed Forces to join the conference as participants. The purpose of this program is to expose these future leaders in the military to debates beyond their standard curriculum, to include them as obvious stakeholders in conversations about security policy, and to enable them to share their viewpoints with all the other GAC participants. This exchange serves to increase interest in matters of national security and provides a unique platform for civilian attendees to engage with a world that remains elusive to most.

All our military speakers and attendees will wear their uniform at the GAC. We encourage everyone to engage with them, and vice versa!

Besides organizing public events and workshops centered around security policy, the GAC MIP team organizes events dedicated to these military participants that complement the overall conference, such as an ethics workshop with an HLS professor, or a masterclass with senior leaders in charge of defending an entire flank of the transatlantic alliance.

PARTICIPATING MILITARY ACADEMIES 2024:

  • Universität der Bundeswehr München (Germany)
  • Helmut-Schmidt University Hamburg (Germany)
  • United States Military Academy at West Point (United States)
  • Theresianische Militärakademie (Austria)
