Delighted to be back in Firenze with JMU EUPS | M.A. in Political Science assisting MA students with their final research papers and making some presentations of my own! And now, gelato.

Its a beautiful day in Firenze, enjoying speaking to students and presenting on working in the international field with JMU EUPS | M.A. in Political Science. The view from my ‘office’ is not bad either.

Time to be a student again...nice to be The GCSP course on Strategic Foresight. So many planners in the room, who knows what we come up with!

New beginnings...goodbye Tbilisi and hello Kyiv! The work evolves, and continues.

I really could have used several years in Georgia to learn all its stories... nytimes.com/2019/05/07/spo… via ⁦The New York Times⁩

Looking forward to attending #Almedalen next week and speak about working around the world with FBA (Folke Bernadotte Academy)!

"For some of us in this Mission, the race is a marathon, focused on maintaining a steady pace. For other colleagues, the work is entirely different, a sprint to keep up with rapid changes." Nytt blogginlägg av Andreas Berg, utsänd till EUAM_Ukraine: fba-bloggen.se/2020/03/03/may…

Reflections (in English) on a very strange year so far!

Watch the video: This is a rare «Singing Postcard» from Prizren in Kosovo. They were very popular in former Yugoslavia during the 1960s. These are actual postal cards that can be also used on a turntable as records. I also have one from Mitrovica.

Ukrainian musicians and filmmakers made a video appeal to people in the world calling to support Ukraine and demand from the governments to do more. As you see, many of them joined the resistance to Russian invasion. Check their music too, I'm sure you'll like it!

One year ago today, the forces of darkness crashed across the Ukrainian frontier to begin what they hoped was a ten-day offensive to destroy the Ukrainian nation and subjugate its people. But the people of Ukraine roared back. A thread on a year of war. 1/25 🧵🇺🇦

“Everyone wants to coordinate, no one wants to be coordinated. The tasks of building resilience & recovery in 🇺🇦 demand coherence & communication among all parties. As 🇺🇦's future relies on EU accession, EUAM_Ukraine must be prepared to leverage its leadership.” Andreas Berg
