On March 2 the PCC organized and hosted a roundtable discussion at this year’s International Studies Association conference in Chicago. The panel under the title "Thinking outside the box: Novel ways of resolving the Cyprus problem" was chaired by PCC Director Harry Tzimitras and brought together recognized academics on the subject Ipek Borman, Ahmet Sozen, George Kyris, Fadil Ersozer, Alexandria J. Innes and Beyza Hatun Kiziltepe. The panel discussed and proposed specific linkages designed to lead out of the current stalemate and hopefully inform other conflicts and peace processes.
