We strongly believe that the multidisciplinary approach of the summer school is indeed the key to better understanding the underlying drivers as well as impacts: it is only by addressing the full set of political, economic, technological and environmental aspects connected to development cooperation, that we can conceptualize a successful way forward.
The program will provide students with deeper understanding of development challenges by addressing the set of political, economic, technological and environmental aspects related to development cooperation.
Many students participating in our program counted our summer schools towards their degrees, usually receiving 3-4 ECTS. Students who wish to receive credits for attending a summer school needs to negotiate the amount of credits with their home university.
