Dear Visitors,
we all wish you all the best for the upcoming year 2011. May it be as successful and exciting as the last one.
During the yearly Kickoff – Meeting in London all the members of the SDW UK group gathered in October 2010 at the London School of Economics to plan the upcoming year’s events. In five regional sub-groups students groups individually discussed possible topics of interest and later presented their suggestions to the whole group. The most popular events got chosen by vote. Present to this kickoff event also were the SDW UK group’s tutor, Dr Tom Kirchmaier (LSE), our manager Ms. Jana Hecker (JP Morgan) and visiting from Berlin, our advisor Ms. Luise Heidenreich (sdw).
Here is an overview to the events chosen:
| Date | Team / Location | Topic |
|---|---|---|
| 03-05 Dec 2010 | London I / LSE | Security vs. Liberty |
| 21-23 Jan 2011 | North England & Scotland / Edinburgh | Islam in the UK - Succesfully Integrated? |
