Southeast Europe and EU - Leadership Development Programme: Launch of Applications!
In an effort to support the integration process in Southeast Europe, the fourth Southeast Europe and the EU Leadership Development Programme supports 30 young people from the countries of Southeast Europe as well as broader Europe. The programme was initiated in 2006 by the TRANSFUSE Association, Berlin, and the College of Europe, Bruges. Starting from 2008, the European Fund for the Balkans in Belgrade has joined the initiative and generously supports the programme.
The Programme will consist of the following activities:
Two-week Summer Academy in Germany (Berlin/Schloß Neuhardenberg)
29 August - 12 September 2009
The curriculum will include topics related to the European Union and the development of its relations with Southeast Europe as well as wider issues of international and economic relations. Practical training components focussing on negotiations, project management and presentation skills will provide participants with essential leadership qualities.
Joint Projects in Southeast Europe
between November 2009 and March 2010
The participants will work together in small multicultural groups to develop and implement a joint activity in Southeast Europe.
Five-day Seminar in Belgium (Brussels/Bruges)
April 2010
The Final Seminar offers visits to the EU institutions and NATO in Brussels and to the Campus of the College of Europe in Bruges.
The Programme will be led by an Academic Dean, who will guide the participants through the different aspects of the Programme. The working language of the Programme is English. The participants are expected to be available during the overall period of the Programme (July 2009 - April 2010) and to attend each planned activity.
Only 30 selected applicants will be invited to participate. Their participation in the Programme will be sponsored by the European Fund for the Balkans, an initiative by the Robert Bosch Stiftung, the King Baudouin Foundation, the Campagnia di San Paolo and the ERSTE Foundation, hosted by the Network of European Foundations.
