Euro-SWAMOS 2022, funded by the Weise Stiftung and supported by the EISS (European Initiative for Security Studies), took place at the Hertie School in Berlin from July 9-15, 2023.

Participants came together from all over Europe and engaged in six days of intense discussions on a range of international security topics with top experts from the Hertie School, Princeton, ETH Zurich, Dartmouth College, NATO Defense College, University of Warwick, and other institutions. Alongside these sessions, the group made connections through a social program including dinners and movie nights.
