Scholarship for 2024 Summer School on National Minorities for students fleeing conflict zones
Since its inaugural edition in 2011, the Annual Summer School on National Minorities has emerged as a cornerstore event hosted by the European Centre for Minority Issues in collaboration with Coppieters Foundation. This exclusive one-week program invites scholars, Ph.D., and MA students from diverse disciplines to participate in a comprehensive training course led by international experts in minority and human rights. Each year, the Summer School unfolds beneath a captivating theme, offering an enriching blend of excursions to relevant institutions and lectures by distinguished academics.
The Coppieters Foundation will support the participation of three persons forced to flee conflict zones in the 14th Annual Summer School on National Minorities in Border Regions. The expenses related to the tuition fee, travel, accommodation, and meals will be covered by the organizers.
