Geopolitical tensions cast a looming shadow over the global economy, stirring volatility and uncertainty in financial markets and trade relations, as well as exerting profound impacts that ripple across continents and industries. As nations grapple with conflicting interests and power struggles, the spectre of trade wars, sanctions, and political instability threatens to disrupt economic stability and impede growth.

In this precarious landscape, fostering multilateral cooperation becomes imperative to mitigate these adverse impacts. Hence, what is the impact on Switzerland and what role can it play to counter these challenges?

This conference with Swiss Federal Councillor Karin Keller-Sutter will be moderated by Cédric Tille, Professor of International Economics at the Geneva Graduate Institute.

This bilingual event, in English and French, is organised in partnership with the Fondation pour Genève.
