How do lasting connections between Europe and Japan begin – and what keeps them alive over decades?
In this conversation, Professors Masashi Urabe and Heinrich Menkhaus reflect on their personal and professional journeys between Japan and Europe. Drawing on many years of experience in academic exchange and international cooperation, they will discuss how their engagement with the other country began, how networks and partnerships developed over time, and which encounters and turning points shaped their careers.
