In international crisis, nothing is as simple and unambiguous as it seems. Different actors have different intentions. The great challenge all delegates will face during TICS 2016 will be to push towards actual collaboration. We are working to provide you the perfect frame to do so.

To understand the conflicts in the world you have to understand the intention of states. To understand the intentions you have to be the state. It promotes international appreciation.
