The Bled Strategic Forum is an intragovernmental project of the Republic of Slovenia.

The 19th edition of the Bled Strategic Forum international conference, taking place on 2 and 3 September, will run under the title ‘A World of Parallel Realities’ and will call for cooperation for the common good, by listening and hearing beyond one's own views. The awareness that we live in a world of parallel realities encourages us to bring these realities together for the common good.
