It’s a wrap for the second edition of the Calvert Journal Film Festival. This year’s virtual gathering, which ran from October 18-31, offered its audience a selection of 35 titles from the New East, with films from across six competition categories battling it out to be named Best Film in their individual section.

The second edition of The Calvert Journal Film Festival will run from 18-31 October. The 14-day online programme will be an intense journey across Eastern Europe, the Balkans, Russia, the Caucasus, and Central Asia through the lens of the region’s independent filmmakers.

This event will features experts and authors from the newest issue of New Eastern Europe which includes a special section on the security situation in our region.

An interview in Tribune de Genève with Ambassador Jürg Lauber, Chair of the United Nations on Cybersecurity, that just completed a two year review of global cybersecurity for the United Nations General Assembly, provided the “entrée” for the May 31st Cybersecurity Roadshow kickoff.

On May 31st, The Bridge launches its global “Cybersecurity Roadshow 2021-22”. The year-long program includes conferences and discussions between leading global experts and students on cybersecurity.

The event will showcase seven days of New East cinema online and all of the titles will be freely available for viewing worldwide.

The Cross-Border Cooperation Congress - Lublin 2020 will take place on October 6-9, 2020, online

At the Cross-Border Cooperation Congress, we will discuss the key questions of the present time: How to reconcile openness to people, change and new technologies and a responsibility for safety? This is a question about a new understanding of participation, both externally, from citizens, and internally, one that would maximise the use of resources within organisations, while empowering employees in the decision-making and strategy-building processes.

Please join us for a special online discussion featuring some authors from the newest issue to be live streamed on our Facebook and YouTube pages.
