    China’s appeal lies in the stark contrast of its brilliant cultures and its recent development into one of the major contenders in global business. For many who have been enthralled and enticed by the mystique of this great nation, there may be no better city than Shanghai to experience the cultural diversity, and to showcase the country’s emerging economic role on the world stage.

    With Global SUFE Summer School, participants are offered exceptional opportunities to understand the Chinese market, investigate the causes behind, and the challenges of china’s economic growth. As Shanghai has also been an extraordinary mixture of the financial hub and cultural grandeur, participants will find it of extra convenience to get exposed to a culture that cover a large region in east Asia with customs and traditions varying greatly even between towns geographically quite close to each other.
    Language: A minimum level 4 of HSK certification in Chinese language is mandatory.

    Summer University, Charles University Prague, 1-13 September 2024
    Application deadline: 14 June 2024

    The key objective of the Summer School 2024 is to understand the reasons for the emergence of conflicts in the contemporary world with examples of contemporary types of conflicts in the world (the Post-Soviet space, the Balkans, the Middle East). Related to this is an understanding of the reasons for social and political polarisation - both in European society and in the United States. Populism is partly behind the polarisation itself - it is therefore necessary to understand its origins and patterns. The result will be an understanding of the reasons for the gradual redefinition of the world order and the role of international institutions, including the rising role of other countries with ambitions of increasing influence such as China or other BRICKS members.

    Erasmus+ Crossroads Staff Week, Erasmus University Rotterdam, 10-13 June 2024
    Application deadline: 1 April 2024

    Staff members working in higher education are all dedicated to investing in our future generations. While a large part of the workforce in higher education currently is made up by Boomers, Gen X and Millennials, most of our students are defined as Generation Z. To effectively engage with our students, it is essential to understand and appreciate the unique perspectives, values, and skills that Gen Z brings to the table, and to be aware of our own pitfalls and biases. Bridging the gap between the different generations allows institutions to enhance collaboration across generations and to better meet the needs of their students, thus contributing to a positive and inspiring learning experience. During the Staff Week on "Bridging the Generation Gap in Higher Education" we will explore a range of themes linked to the Generation Gap within higher education with higher education staff from different  countries and backgrounds.
