The BEARR Trust 2025 Annual Lecture with Bobo Lo and Kadri Liik

The BEARR Trust 2025 Annual Lecture, generously hosted by the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) at their headquarters in Canary Wharf, took place on Tuesday, 14 October 2025. The event took the form of a discussion between Bobo Lo, international relations expert and author, and Kadri Liik, journalist and political analyst, on the subject of “is it all over for the rules-based international order?” It was moderated by Sir Roderic Lyne, Patron of The BEARR Trust and former British Ambassador in Moscow (2000–2004). All proceeds from the lecture went towards BEARR’s work supporting grassroots civil society organisations in the field of health and social welfare in the countries of Eastern Europe, Central Asia and the Caucasus. The funds raised will also support the work of our Ukraine Community Resilience Fund.
