Celebrating the 10th edition
Save-the-date: 5 November 2026
This year, the Global Alumni Networking Night (GANN) reaches its 10th edition, and we invite GCSP Alumni around the world to come together for a truly global day of connection and learning.
We will be uniting alumni in as many capitals across the globe as possible permitting in-person networking, and providing alumni with the opportunity to reconnect, expand their professional networks, exchange ideas.
To mark this 10th edition, the GCSP will also host a global thematic programme, connecting alumni across time zones through a series of five live virtual sessions led by GCSP experts. Running throughout the day, these sessions will explore some of today's most pressing security challenges, including:
- Leadership in a Changing World
- Strategic Anticipation
- Preventing Violent Extremism (PVE)
- Arms Control and Disarmament
- Global and Emerging Risks
Whether you join virtually, attend your local networking event, or participate in both, the GANN 2026 will bring together the GCSP Alumni community around a shared purpose: strengthening professional connections, fostering dialogue, and advancing peace and security worldwide.
We look forward to celebrating the 10th edition of GANN with you.
