About the Kensington Treaty
The German Bundestag has ratified the Kensington Treaty, thereby creating a new framework for German-British relations after Brexit. In addition to continued cooperation in the areas of security and defence, it also aims for improved social and cultural exchange as well as a deepening of economic ties. This event's talks will prompt guests to consider what role alumni of Royal Holloway play in revitalising German-British relations.
