Application Deadline: May 3rd, 2024.
The school intends to provide an intensive training course for graduate students and young researchers who are working in the field of development and international economics. This year the focus will be on “Political Economy and Development”, with a focus on governance and accountability in developing countries and the consequences for socio-economic growth, corruption, migration and conflict.
Participants:
The school is targeted to graduate students, doctoral students and post-doctoral researchers in economics with a focus on development economics. Students are expected to attend the school full time.
Fees and Scholarships:
Participants will be charged €650 covering registration, accommodation (double rooms), meals and background material. A limited number of fee waivers can be assigned to students from Developing Countries.
Location:
The school will take place at Castello di Gargonza, a medieval village and historic residence in the world-famous Tuscany countryside. The 13th century fortified hamlet is surrounded by more than 600 hectares of forest, olive groves and vineyards and overlooks the Val di Chiana. It is the perfect place for summer schools and conferences, as all the facilities are offered in the same place.
Applications and deadlines:
The participants will be selected by the Selection Committee on the basis of the information included in the application forms. Depending on the programme, there might be a few slots for students’ presentations, and priority will be given to those going on the Job Market this fall.
