As Copenhagen's summit week concludes, disruptive #drone incursions set the tone and brought Moscow's hybrid war to #EUCO. We asked @rynning.bsky.social about the significance of the operation, how the continent should respond, and the view from #Denmark.

“Dare to disrupt!”💥
- Eske Willerslev

We had an absolute blast hosting Eske Willerslev yesterday at @sdu.dk for a powerful discussion on the *purpose* of research - and why curiosity, controversy, and disruption drive real progress. Lots of laughs, insights, and food for thought!

A gravitational pull from the upper echelons? 👑
DIAS Director Sten Rynning (@rynning.bsky.social) was spotted mere metres from the Dutch king at last week’s NATO Public Forum! From attracting top scholars to mingling with royalty, DIAS is clearly in orbit 🌍

Today, we wrapped up the semester in style at our annual summer gathering - with cold drinks, traditional Danish hotdogs ‘med det hele’, and great company 🌭🥂 ☀️

Thanks to everyone who showed up at the DIAS rooftop terrace to celebrate with us!

As populations age and life expectancy rises, governments are rethinking retirement policies - but what are the implications for intergenerational equity? 🤔

A must-see for anyone concerned with the future of ageing societies and the ethical questions we can no longer afford to ignore.
Is it (un)fair to raise the pension age in greying societies?

I was interviewed by Adrian Finighan on @aljazeera.com TV's global business and economics program "Counting the Cost" (from min 21:30):

Still "plenty of fish in the sea”? 🐟
Not here in Denmark. Nitrogen pollution and warming waters are driving marine life away. The Green Deal is a step forward, but are we ready to do what it takes to save our seas? 🌊

Thanks to Stiig Markager of @au.dk for an insightful talk today at DIAS.

What are the implications of politicians swapping public office for corporate roles? Interestingly, this ‘revolving door’ might have political benefits for both the public and the private sector.

Thanks to @bcegerod.bsky.social of Copenhagen Business School for making us a little wiser 💡
