Under the theme Collaboration in Transition: Internationalisation, Knowledge Exchange, and the Future of Academic Networks, the International Graduate Centre for the Study of Culture (GCSC) at Justus Liebig University Giessen (JLU) will host the International Networking Day 2026 as part of its 20th anniversary celebrations.
The event will bring together representatives of international academic networks to exchange experiences, explore successful approaches to cooperation and discuss how partnerships can be sustained and further developed amid changing geopolitical, institutional and financial conditions.
Key topics will include doctoral and early-career training, academic mobility, knowledge exchange and the future of international academic cooperation.

As part of the programme, the EUPeace Alliance will contribute a best practice presentation entitled Shared Goals, Different Realities – Multilateral Networking: The Example of EUPeace, taking place from 11:30 to 12:00 CET.
Drawing on practical experiences from across the Alliance, the presentation will highlight the opportunities and challenges of working across different institutional and national contexts. Practical examples will illustrate how shared ambitions can be translated into meaningful joint activities. The presentation will be followed by a discussion.
