An evening about climate policy, knowledge, and hope in Bayreuth
The BayCEER Colloquium will bring Martin Kaiser, Executive Board Member of Greenpeace Germany, to the University of Bayreuth on July 9, 2026. In Lecture Hall GEO I, a topic will be at the center that connects scientific analysis and social urgency: the future of international climate policy in times of geopolitical tensions and fragmentation. The colloquium is intended as an interdisciplinary platform for students, researchers, and interested parties.

A lecture with political sharpness and scientific resonance
Martin Kaiser has been working for Greenpeace since 1998, serving as Executive Board Member since 2016. His work ranges from UN climate conferences to G7 and G20 summits to the German coal commission that has shaped the exit from coal in Germany. This is precisely what gives the evening its tension: Here, political practice, environmental ethics, and the sober question of how international climate policy remains capable of action under pressure come together.

Reading atmosphere in a scientific format
Even without a literary reading, the BayCEER Colloquium develops the quality of a concentrated intellectual format. The lecture series is designed as a space for exchange and leads guests into a relaxed discussion situation after the main lecture. This creates the dense atmosphere in which arguments resonate, questions become more precise, and a lecture turns into a lively conversation between research, society, and the public.
