University College Cork and the Irish Defence Forces are pleased to announce a new lecture series on international relations, security and defence. The first lecture will be delivered by Defence Forces Chief of Staff Vice Admiral Mark Mellett. The world faces an increasingly challenging and complex security environment, with issues such as climate change, migration and the Covid-19 pandemic posing major challenges in terms of broader human security. The lecture series will look at contemporary global security challenges, how such problems may impact on Ireland, and how Ireland can contribute to addressing regional and global security threats.
