The Living Practice: EU@Work-Excursion to Cologne and Brussels
Based on our positive experiences in recent years, we are continuing the excursion “The Living Practice: EU@Work” with students from the Turkisch-German University and the University of Cologne.
The excursion has an international and interdisciplinary focus and is designed to help students to understand the European Union (EU) and its institutions.
In this context, it provides local insights into the European work of the city of Cologne and the state of North Rhine-Westphalia. This year's seminar is dedicated to the conflict between the right to freedom of assembly and the free movement of goods using the example of the farmer's protest in 2024. An essential part of the seminar is a simulation game thematically related to the conflict under consideration, for which the students are prepared by means of seminars and training courses so that they can present their results on the excursion in Brussels.
The program in Brussels is supplemented by visits to EU institutions, embassies and museums. These will provide an insight into the interplay between science, inter- and supranational politics and practice.
The final program will be published here soon.
The excursion is kindly supported by Cologne Summer Schools and Kölner Gymnasial- und Stiftungsfonds as part of our PROTEUS seminar at the University of Cologne and the German Academic Exchange Service as part of our MA program at the Turkish-German University in Istanbul.
The excursion is co-organzied by ILWR, CETEUS and FEU, which supports the summer school with funds from the German-Turkisch Youth Bridge.
