An evening for all who think about language, knowledge, and change
The lecture series The World in Change brings to the stage on June 11, 2026, at the Institute for Geodesy and Geoinformation of the University of Bonn a topic that extends far beyond disciplinary boundaries: How precise surveying, climate research, and digital geoinformation change our view of the world. In Lecture Hall XVI, a space charged with literary and scientific energy is created, where knowledge, present, and future meet.
Geodesy as a narrative of the present
Christoph Holst from the Technical University of Munich talks about a field that often works in the background yet shapes our everyday understanding. Geodesy provides not only numbers and maps but the precise language with which buildings, cities, mountains, and risks can be described. This tension defines the atmosphere of the lecture: Measuring becomes a cultural instrument that makes change visible.
A scientific look at climate, space, and future
The Bonn geodesy looks back on 150 years of tradition and connects classical surveying with modern research fields like remote sensing, reference systems, robotics, and sustainable agriculture. The lecture series fits into this development and demonstrates how scientific expertise addresses societal questions precisely and vividly. Anyone interested in the cultural discourse surrounding urban development, environment, and technology will experience here a condensed form of knowledge transfer.
The place: academic, open, concentrated
The evening is organized at the Institute for Geodesy and Geoinformation, in close proximity to the scientific infrastructure of the University of Bonn. The lecture hall provides the appropriate framework for a focused audience that not only listens but also discovers connections. The atmosphere promises a meeting with an expert who conveys research not abstractly but tangibly and vividly.
Why attending is worthwhile
This event appeals not only to students and those interested in science but to anyone who enjoys looking deeper: at the measurement of the world, at the dynamics of cities, and at how data becomes knowledge. Anyone wanting to experience modern science in clear language will find here an extraordinary lecture format with intellectual tension and cultural relevance.
Conclusion: The lecture series in Bonn combines geodesy, climate insight, and future thinking into a precisely composed evening. A visit is worthwhile for all who appreciate scientific depth and lively communication.
