McDonald’s Radio University is the first European Thinkbelt project. Together with university teachers from Afghanistan, Syria, Pakistan, Ghana, Burkina Faso, Eritrea and Iran, Akira Takayama and Port B are organizing a three-week lecture series, which will take place in various Frankfurt McDonald’s restaurants. Coming from a wide range of academic fields, the professors’ aim will be to deepen and expand the academic canon of knowledge based on their own personal experiences and individual research interests. All lectures will take place during regular restaurant operating hours. The lecturers and audience members mingle with the guests. An extensive course catalogue listing all events, dates and times goes online at www.mru.global on 1 March.
