Securing Germany's independence and sovereignty in times of crisis is a joint task for the federal and state governments. In the face of growing threats - from cyber attacks and hybrid scenarios to threats to critical infrastructure - the question arises as to how well prepared Germany is for extreme situations. How can civil and military cooperation be strengthened in order to sustainably increase crisis resilience?

After a welcome by Dr. Enrico Fels (CASSIS), Dr. Daniela Lesmeister (Ministry of the Interior NRW), retired Lieutenant General Martin Schelleis (Malteser), Lieutenant General André Bodemann (Bundeswehr) and Martin Zeidler (BBK) will discuss ways to strengthen resilience. ARD journalist Susanna Zdrzalek will moderate the event.
