On April 30, 2012, Petr Lang was appointed to the position of Program Director of the Prague Security Studies Institute (PSSI). Mr. Lang had been working as PSSI’s Program Coordinator since 2006. He has been involved in coordination, planning and implementation of all PSSI’s programs, and worked closely with Olda Černý, PSSI’s late Executive Director. Olda’s Co-Founder of PSSI and Acting Executive Director, Roger Robinson, observed, “Petr Lang has been an indispensible part of the PSSI team for over six years and brings institutional memory as well as fresh ideas to his new position.“
Mr. Lang has, to date, focused on energy security, breaking geopolitical developments and the nexus of global economics and national security concerns. He has also coordinated major events in a number of other policy areas (e.g missile defense, space security etc.). Prior to joining PSSI, he served as Fundraising and Human Resources Coordinator at the Forum 2000 Foundation in Prague and as the Editor at the People in Need Foundation. In 2009-2010, Mr. Lang also lectured on the EU’s energy security policies at Metropolitan University in Prague.
He holds an advanced MA degree (PhDr.) in political science from the Faculty of Social Sciences at Charles University and has published periodically on subjects in his field.
