Calling all young professionals, researchers, and future think tankers! The New Eastern Europe Think Tank School is back!
Join us for a week-long programme where you will have a unique chance to learn more about non-governmental organisations, think tanks, and advocacy groups in Central and Eastern Europe.
The Think Tank School programme is densely packed with workshops, presentations, and cultural activities throughout the week, including travel between Vilnius, Gdańsk, and Warsaw. During the project, you will be able to receive practical guidance on navigating democracy-building challenges and effectively engaging with the complex issues these organisations address.
The upcoming project will run from May 31st to June 6th.
Eligibility:
- Be under 30 years old: academic, student, or researcher.
- Be based in the European Union.
- Be eager to learn more about how think tanks and non-governmental organisations work.
Regardless of whether you have experience with expert organisations or came up with an idea of founding one yesterday, meeting with trainers from the most active and influential non-governmental organisations and public institutions will help you understand the needs and prospects of your team and ideas.
Participants will be reimbursed up to 200 EUR for travel.
Application deadline: April 7, 23:59 CEST
