Science Against Fascism: Bayreuth invites to an open debate
Science, democratic responsibility, and societal exchange are the focus of the evening on November 3, 2026, at the Africa Research Center at the University of Bayreuth. Three impulse lectures will open up different perspectives on the relationship between science, democracy, and fascist tendencies.
Three impulses for a clear view
Starting at 6:15 PM, the audience can expect a focused event format with three scientific short lectures. The contributions provide orientation, contextualize current developments, and show the significance of research and teaching for an open society.
Questions, discussion, and exchange
After the impulses, the evening opens up for questions, discussion, and personal exchange. The event combines professional categorization with a lively conversational atmosphere and is aimed at all who wish to follow societal debates attentively and strengthen democratic values.
Science as societal responsibility
The nationwide initiative Science Against Fascism makes it clear that universities are not only places of knowledge transfer but also spaces of democratic responsibility. Various perspectives on academic freedom, right-wing extremism, and social engagement have already been brought together as part of the initiative at the University of Bayreuth.
An evening for information and stance
The organization as a public lecture evening relies on well-founded impulses, understandable discussion, and direct encounters. The connection between scientific expertise and open exchange particularly shapes the event experience at the FZA and creates space for nuanced questions.
Conclusion
Visitors can expect an informative evening with three impulse lectures, subsequent discussion, and space for exchange. Those who want to better understand current societal developments and discuss the responsibility of science will experience an important occasion to think along and speak out in Bayreuth.
