23rd CEI International Summer School “Envisioning Moving Frontiers: Migration Management, Minority Protection and the Enhancement of Territorial Cooperation”, Forlì (Italy)

The 23rd edition of the CEI International Summer School  - organised by the Istituto per l’Europa Centro-Orientale e Balcanica (IECOB) - will address and discuss the challenges faced by the European and Nation-State governance in relation to security issues, and socio-political developments.

Events concerning Albania, Croatia, Hungary, Macedonia, Serbia, and Ukraine are some of the case-studies that will be analysed. In addition, the school will focus on the new conceptualisations (such as métissages, cultural nomadism, interculturality, diversity management and deliberation), gender relations, and existing legal, social and cultural instruments for the protection of minorities in the broader sense. Participants from other organisations (i.e. EU, Council of Europe and OSCE) active in the fields of migration and security issues in Europe will also take part in the event.

The School will provide frontal lessons, class discussions, collective presentations and round tables with a strong interdisciplinary approach. Throughout the School classes, the participants will discuss best practices in the making of inclusive society, such as the case of performative immigrant integration policy recently adopted in Southern Italy (see Riace – Calabria).

This event is co-funded by the CEI Cooperation Fund.
