The Better Conference. Article by Dr. Klaus Hahnzog in the Münchner Abendzeitung v. 31.1.2014
Among the speakers at the 2014 conference:
Prof. Dr. retired Mohssen Massarrat
was a university lecturer at the University of Osnabrück in international politics, peace and conflict studies, and political economy. He has been proposing since 2006,
to create a zone free of weapons of mass destruction in the Middle East through a series of conferences. Controlling and eliminating existing weapons of mass destruction and preventing the proliferation of nuclear weapons in the region (“nuclear conflict with Iran”) would be an important step in confidence building and easing tensions in the region.
Dr. Aminata Traoré,
is an author, politician and political activist from Mali. After a brief civil war and French military intervention a year ago, Mali has disappeared from the media headlines again. Ms. Traoré was Minister of Culture and Tourism. It is committed to development and cultural autonomy and criticizes globalization and the economic practices of industrialized nations.
Dr. Bettina Gruber
is deputy director of the Center for Peace Research and Peace Education at the University of Klagenfurt. She has studied the reconciliation and peace-building processes in the Alps-Adriatic region, where hundreds of thousands of people fell victim to the war machine during the First World War.
