CEFRES’s monthly seminar aims at fulfilling CEFRES’s mission to train PhD students and young researchers. Since Autumn 2021, CEFRES gathers in a Research Seminar all its PhD fellows and researchers opened to young researchers and to MA and PhD students of its partners, within “CEFRES Platform” and in the four Visegrad countries.
Presentations focus on the conceptual and methodological framework of each research with the inscription within one of CEFRES Research Areas. We invite participants to explain how their research sheds light on, refines and critiques one or more aspects of these topics and the way they are usually conceptualised, through their own questionings, embedded in one or several disciplines, their empirical field and the methodology they use.
Location: CEFRES Library and online
Dates: once a month, on Tuesday, 16:30–18:30
