INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS

Generation Global Live

Young people want to be taken seriously in political debates. They have opinions, questions, and often a keen interest in current discussions and political decision-making processes. How do young people experience international crises and current controversies? The Liz Mohn Foundation provides students and high-ranking representatives from politics and society with a platform for open dialogue on equal footing as part of the annual “Generation Global LIVE” conference.

Until 2025, the Liz Mohn Foundation organized the event in cooperation with the Munich Security Conference under the title “Zeitenwende on tour.” Since 2026, the Liz Mohn Foundation has continued to host the annual conference independently under the title “Generation Global LIVE.”
