On 9 and 10 June 2023, the Ministry of the Interior in cooperation with non-government institutions will participate in the LAMPA Conversation Festival by offering to visitors discussions on important topics of national internal security. In two days, eight discussion panels are planned in the People's Security tent to promote public awareness and resilience to various security-related risks, to present the work of the interior sector for the benefit of the public, and to promote cooperation with the non-governmental sector.
Visitors to the LAMPA Conversation Festival will be able to listen, think, participate and talk to knowledgeable high-level interior sector professionals about national internal security in general and related issues.
In addition, visitors will be offered a number of engagement activities. In an activity organized by the Office of Citizenship and Migration Affairs, the Latvian Contact Point of the European Migration Network will call for awareness of the basic concepts of migration and asylum and the decision-making process in the exciting migration game “Destination: Europe”, which will help to understand migration and integration processes in the European Union.
