Information and Contact for Journalists

The Munich Security Conference is convinced of the need for a sustained and informed public debate on foreign, security and defense policy issues and therefore strives to involve a broad public in its debates. The majority of our debates are broadcast live via video and the results of the events are made public via reports, interviews and social media.
