The ALLEA General Assembly annually convenes academies of sciences and humanities from 40 countries across the Council of Europe region, providing a unique platform for dialogue across borders, disciplines, generations, and sectors.  

The 2025 ALLEA General Assembly will take place on 3–4 June in Copenhagen, Denmark, hosted by the Royal Danish Academy of Sciences and Letters. As in previous years, also in 2025 our General Assembly will offer attendees a multi-faceted programme, including parts that are open to the public – such as the Scientific Symposium “Europe and the Arctic: Science and Diplomacy” or the Madame de Staël Prize Lecture on 3 June.  

Academy delegates are invited to attend further programme elements on both days. The ALLEA business meeting on 4 June will discuss governance, strategy and policy matters and is restricted to the Member Academies of ALLEA. 

 

Registration Open

ABOUT THE PUBLIC EVENT

SCIENTIFIC SYMPOSIUM

The scientific symposium ‘Europe and the Arctic: Science and Diplomacy’ will bring together prominent researchers, policymakers, and civil society representatives from across Europe to discuss how research-based Arctic diplomacy can shape sustainable and collaborative futures. These regions are part of the same ecosystem, with elements that depend on one another—a relationship that has become increasingly apparent against the backdrop of climate change and increasing geopolitical tensions.

MADAME DE STAËL PRIZE LECTURE

The 2024 Madame de Staël Prize Lecture will take place under the auspices of the ALLEA General Assembly 2025 in Copenhagen on 3 June.
Prof. Viola Priesemann, physicist and Board member of “Die Junge Akademie,” will be honoured for her leadership during the pandemic, scientific excellence, and commitment to a coordinated European response.
