The Conference took place on 26th September, 2023.
The Slovak Security Forum (SBF) organized by the Euro-Atlantic Center in cooperation with the University Library in Bratislava, under the auspices of the Minister of Foreign and European Affairs and the Minister of Defence, is the second largest security conference and represents one of the basic pillars of the Slovak dialogue on national security.
One of the main goals of SBF 2023 was to create a platform for an open discussion on the development of the priorities of the defence and security policy of the Slovak Republic as a member of NATO and the EU and to retrospectively evaluate 30 years of security in Slovakia. The conference was therefore divided into three-panel discussions, in which speakers from the governmental, non-governmental and academic spheres had the opportunity to discuss the most current challenges facing the Slovak Republic as one of the members of NATO and the EU.
The Conference also included an exhibition of books on the given topic from the DL NATO fund.
