A round table discussion in the KIWi series, held as a hybrid event and conducted in English. Behind it is the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD), with Deputy Secretary General Michael Harms speaking. The topic is knowledge security, which is becoming increasingly institutionalised across Europe, with developments at EU and national level shaping expectations for more standardised and partly mandatory approaches. The discussion asks how responsibilities can be proportionately distributed across system levels to balance openness, autonomy and risk mitigation and enable secure international collaboration, highlighting risk literacy as a prerequisite for sensitive risk assessment and decision-making.
