Critical Junctures and Windows of Opportunity for (Post-) Pandemic Societies in Europe and Latin America. JUNCTURES_2022

International Summer School in Heidelberg. Application for scholarships available for Latin American students

Heidelberg Center for Ibero-American Studies (HCIAS) and Heidelberg Center for Latin America (HCLA) of Heidelberg University invite students from the social sciences and humanities to participate in the international summer school from 25th July to 2nd August 2022. Students from Latin America can apply for scholarships (travel and accommodation expenses).

The summer school is aimed at:

-Master's and Ph.D students

-Students in their last year of their bachelor degree in social sciences and humanities.

JUNCTURES_2022 considers the Covid-19 pandemic to be a critical juncture, which may have contributed to the strengthening of current polarization dynamics and social and economic inequality, but that may alternatively be visualized as a window of opportunity for political reforms and for social, economic, and ecological transformation processes. JUNCTURES_2022 departs from this background and seeks to encourage participants to critically analyze this window of opportunity and its implications for the post-pandemic societies of Europe and Latin-America from different analytic perspectives.

Courses are held in English and Spanish with professors from Germany and Latin America. Enrollment is free of charge and you will receive a certificate at the end of the summer school from Heideleberg University.

Important dates:

- Application deadline 27th of May 2022.

- Students entrance notification: end of May.
