Summer school 2026
ENLARGE is a European Erasmus + project (Jean Monnet Debate Policy) intended to provide scientific knowledge regarding the past and potential future enlargements of the European Union.
Nantes University, as a member of the ENLARGE consortium, organizes the first summer school of the project in June 2026 and will host 23 students from all member universities along with 7 students from Nantes University.
The objectives of this summer school are to provide a scientific knowledge to all participants on the enlargement process, as to understand the Europeans’ feelings regarding this question. By playing an active role through project making, the students will be able to bring insightful views on the past enlargement and the perspectives of future ones, that will help researchers and public institutions better understand the consequences and the stakes of such process on ensuring peace for the European community and its relations to its neighbours.
