"MULTI-DISCIPLINARY AND CROSS-NATIONAL APPROACHES TO ROMANY STUDIES - A MODEL FOR EUROPE"

Course Dates: July 6-24, 2009
Location: Central European University (CEU), Budapest, Hungary, Detailed course description: http://www.sun.ceu.hu/romany

This "Romany Studies" program is the last stage in a unique set of training events (March 2007 - March 2010) supported by the Marie Curie Conferences and Training Courses that CEU and its partner institutions have been hosting. The program is aimed at training graduate students and junior researchers at the outset of their careers to become the next generation of teachers and researchers in the broad field of Romany studies.

Our aim is to bring together young (mostly doctoral) researchers working on issues that concern Roma and Gypsies so that they will be able to gauge the development of Romany politics and culture over the past century from the perspective of Romany Studies and from that of the social scientific study of the countries of the region. Interaction with leading senior researchers is the core of all training activities. The experts will draw directly on their current research and extensive international collaborations to offer participants the opportunity to hone your own skills.
