Q BERLIN 2022 [English]

The Metropolitan Conference for the immediate present

Almost everyone senses that something is changing on our planet
and in our society. But the more we look into it, the clearer it
becomes how complex the connections are and how challenging the
search for solutions has become. In this episode of Berlin
Unboxed, we report on this year’s edition of the conference Q
BERLIN, titled „The New Unknown – Navigating Zeitenwende“.
Profound shifts in global dynamics, an ongoing war in Europe, a
pandemic spanning more than two years, a looming energy and
economic crisis and increasing pressure to accelerate the green
transition – all contribute to the state of crisis that defines
the world we live in now. This is a historical turning point, and
global metropolises - like Berlin - are at the heart of the
issue.

Franziska Giffey, Governing Mayor of Berlin and host of Q
