The military panel explored Canada\u2019s presence in Germany during the Cold War.

The panel on radicalization and democratic resilience shifted the focus toward questions of memory, antisemitism, racism, social cohesion, and public discourse. Several speakers returned to the importance of civil society, education, and public trust. Democratic culture, it was noted, requires continual attention, sustained through institutions, community organizations, and spaces where difficult conversations remain possible. The final panel on universities and research covered a remarkable amount of ground, from student mobility and research partnerships to academic freedom and science diplomacy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information and to read further please click the link: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/posts\/myka-burke-168006a7_a-symposium-can-sometimes-feel-like-a-collection-ugcPost-7468848971604541440-3efu\/?utm_source=share&amp;utm_medium=member_desktop&amp;rcm=ACoAAAG-wu8BeOH2eOzYcRdmKCzesHwsYf_t5DI\">https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/posts\/myka-burke-168006a7_a-symposium-can-sometimes-feel-like-a-collection-ugcPost-7468848971604541440-3efu\/?utm_source=share&amp;utm_medium=member_desktop&amp;rcm=ACoAAAG-wu8BeOH2eOzYcRdmKCzesHwsYf_t5DI<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"321\" src=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/history\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/71\/2026\/06\/1780712350915.jpg\" alt=\"Panel\" class=\"wp-image-27803\" srcset=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/history\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/71\/2026\/06\/1780712350915.jpg 800w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/history\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/71\/2026\/06\/1780712350915-512x205.jpg 512w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/history\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/71\/2026\/06\/1780712350915-320x128.jpg 320w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/history\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/71\/2026\/06\/1780712350915-768x308.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Canada-Germany relationship appeared in different forms, each panel refracting another aspect of a connection that has developed over 75 years.
