On January 17, 2025 academics from the Border and Regional Studies Network met online in order to discuss organization of the summer school: ‘Cross-Border Cooperation and Border Conflicts in Central and Eastern Europe at the Time of Policrises’. The summer school will be organized by the Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań together with the partners from Liberec, Cluj-Napoca, Opava, Trnava and Kaunas.
The summer school is organized as the Erasmus + Blended Intensive Programme, thus it is divided into the online and physical components. The online module starts on February 17 being divided into 4 thematic meetings, while on April 7-11 students will get together in Poznań. This is another joint activity organized by members of our network, which allows us not only to integrate, but also to teach students from Central Europe interested in the problems of cross-border cooperation.
