CARL - Central Asia Research Lab
In the winter semester 2025/26, we will launch CARL – the Central Asia Research Lab, which will take place every two weeks on Tuesdays from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. in room 507. Here we present the schedule with an overview of the first eight individual events for the winter semester 2025/26.
