Political Pressure Challenges Academic Freedom in BerlinTU Berlin modified or relocated 14 talks after AfD legal threats concerning the use of the term 'fascist' in 2026.
- The Technical University of Berlin changed ten presentation titles and moved four events following AfD complaints about neutrality violations.
