Abstract painting "Collision" (2022) by Ismail Noh, characterized by expressive brushwork and a dynamic color palette of blues, oranges, yellows, and blacks. The composition suggests fluid motion and energetic interaction between forms, with sweeping gestural marks creating visual tension and movement throughout the canvas.

How do you turn enemies into constitutional partners?

Professor Rüdiger Wolfrum shows how academia can host the hardest political talks. His #Sudan mediation in 2002 proved scholarship should settle real disputes, not just publish papers.

🎓 Congrats Dr. Philipp Sauter! His PhD bridges physics + international law: "Fusion Energy in Nuclear Weapons Law" reveals legal blind spots as fusion approaches commercial viability. New treaties needed to ensure clean energy serves peace, not proliferation.
