RIAS Zoom Talks lined-up for this and next week
RIAS Zoom Talks will resume on May 26th with a focus on how Germany has handled the coronavirus crisis compared to other countries hit harder.
German medical correspondent Christoph Specht from Cologne will be talking about Germany’s response to the coronavirus on Tuesday May 26th, and WUSA TV anchor Larry Miller will join us from Washington DC on Wednesday May 27th to discuss how the pandemic has changed his world. On Wednesday June 3rd, we will welcome Politico’s Chief European Correspondent Matthew Karnitschnig.
Christoph Specht is one of Germany’s leading medical experts on television and can be seen regularly on NTV, RTL and ZDF explaining, among other things, how the country is getting through the coronavirus crisis.
Larry Miller is a RIAS alumni and a midday anchor on WUSA9. Inspired by his RIAS Berlin Commission fellowship in 2019, he made this video to help future RIAS participants prepare for their RIAS experience.
Matthew Karnitschnig is a member of the RIAS Berlin Commission Board and has written a number of insightful stories on Germany’s response to Covid-19.
These talks will include ample opportunities for Q&A. The conversations will be held on the Zoom platform and will be on-the-record unless otherwise stated beforehand. We hope these sessions insprire reflection and possibly ideas for stories as well as offer everyone an opportunity to think differently about some issues. These are aimed at allowing participants to learn more about German and American issues and, above all, to connect you more closely to the RIAS Network.
