Rodrigo Patto Sá Motta's lecture will focus on the recent shift to the right in the Southern Cone countries, which brought the far-right to power in that region starting with Jair Bolsonaro in Brazil (2018) and Javier Milei in Argentina (2023), while Chile's political fate is currently in dispute during the 2025 November/December elections.
Unpacking the Global Security Initiative (GSI), the Global Development Initiative (GDI), and the Global Civilization Initiative (GCI), the seminar sheds light on how China is not simply participating in global governance but actively attempting to redefine its rules, norms, and moral foundations.
GIGA, RWI, DEval, and the evaluation department of KfW invite to a one-day Learning Forum on the use of evidence in German development cooperation. The forum aims to firmly establish evidence-based approaches on the agenda of political decision-makers and to strengthen the dialogue between research and practice. Using concrete examples and current development policy challenges, the event will demonstrate how evidence can be systematically applied to inform and improve decision-making processes.
GIGA researchers Andreas Ufen, Abdil Mughis Mudhoffir, Nathanael Gratias Sumaktoyo, Oliver Schramm and Iris Wieczorek took part in this roundtable at the Embassy of the Republic of Indonesia in Berlin. The participants explored how far Indonesia’s and Germany’s foreign policy interests align and how Indonesian foreign policy is viewed in Berlin. They discussed the extraordinarily difficult geopolitical and geoeconomic condition in the region, and stressed the enormous potential of bilateral relations between Germany and Indonesia. Both countries would benefit from much more intensive cooperation in different policy areas.
