Lucerne Summer University Ethics in a Global Context 2023

The Lucerne Summer University: Ethics in a Global Context LSUE under the patronage of UNESCO takes place from 1 – 6 June, 2023 at the University of Lucerne.

The Lucerne Summer University: Ethics in a Global Context LSUE under the patronage of the UNESCO enables young students to examine ethical questions of today and tomorrow – beyond the boundaries of academic fields, cultures and religion – and to search together for solutions in a global context.

This practical and action-oriented dialog is ideal to nurture a constantly expanding, international network of committed decision makers who exchange knowledge, advise each other and work together. The guiding principle of this endeavor is “Know how, act now”.
