Welcome to the seminar series on democracy and academic freedom, a collaboration between KTH’s Faculty Council and KTH Library. During 2025–2026, we will explore how these fundamental values are being challenged worldwide.

So far, eight seminars have been held. Seven of these were recorded and can be accessed afterwards. The seminar series will continue in 2026.
