The participants will get to know the practical work of institutions of the European Union. They will reflect on the objectives and the general conception of European integration and will discuss these with experts from all disciplines.
The program covers workshops in Bonn as well as excursions to Luxemburg and Brussels to visit important European institutions.
At the same time the Summer School is a place for young people to exchange their ideas about a better future. Regardless of their nationalities, cultural roots or professions they discuss new ways to a peaceful and democratic society.
The threat of various crises requires a new understanding between political actors and raises the issue, how to establish a successful international cooperation.
The European GSI Summer School is an annual event, organized by the Gustav-Stresemann-Institute in Bonn. Partner-institutions such as the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) are involved and have been supporting the Summer School for many years.
For 65 years the Gustav-Stresemann-Institute follows the ideas of Gustav Stresemann and Aristide Briand, both awarded with the Noble Peace Prize in 1926, to improve pan-European understanding and to promote international cooperation. The GSI is an independent, non-profit institution for citizens‘ training and international exchange.
Details of the programme will be published in April 2018.
