On Wednesday, November 26, our after-work event will take place again „Law in Dialogue Forum“ It will take place at our foundation’s premises in Leipzig. This time, our guest is the comedian, host, and event organizer Monif.

With shows like „Karli Comedy“ and „Magdeburg lacht,“ Monif creates platforms for diverse voices, sharp observations of everyday life, and social commentary. Together with Dr Cord Brügmann Monif will talk about where comedy and the law intersect. He’ll also discuss whether the topics of law and the rule of law have ever made it onto his stage.

Following the discussion, we invite all guests to join us for a relaxed get-together over a drink.
