Alumni and friends are invited to join the London Branch of University of Bristol Alumni for their annual lecture which will be given by Misha Glenny (BA Drama and German 1980), broadcaster, author and Rector of the Institute for Human Sciences (IWM) in Vienna, Austria.  

The lecture will be followed by a short Annual General Meeting of the London Branch and a networking reception with refreshments where you can mingle with fellow alumni. 

Misha Glenny is an award-winning journalist who made a name for himself as the BBC’s Central Europe Correspondent covering the 1989 revolutions and the wars in the former Yugoslavia. He has a Sony Gold Award for Outstanding Contribution to Broadcasting and has won BT’s Information Security Journalist of The Year.  

He is regularly consulted on transnational organised crime and cyber security by governments and law enforcement agencies in Europe and the Americas on the Balkans and Eastern Europe. He is also a regular contributor to major publications in Europe, North America and Japan. 

Misha Glenny will be presenting on the intriguing topic: "Are we living in the 1930s? Or something else?" Drawing on recent events, this promises to be an insightful and engaging lecture that you won't want to miss.
