Since 1995, the International Summer School of
the European PhD on Social Representations and Communication (http://www.europhd.eu/IntSummerSchools)
has been offering advanced training to young researchers in key areas of
social psychology with wide applications in the public and private sectors on issues including the
information society, science popularisation, new socialization and communication strategies, and
applied research crucial to health, the environment, political life, social minorities, gender, etc.
It has helped to reinforce the intellectual
leadership of European Social Psychology and is now well established as a permanent European
forum for disseminating state of the art research in this area. Systematic co-operation among
European researchers remains one of the fundamental prerequisites for meeting the goals of the
ERA and EHEA and the European PhD's International Summer School has played and will continue to
play an active role in promoting "internationalization" of European Higher Education, taking it
beyond the walls of academia, and contributing to the diversity of experience for the trainees
involved.
Target groups include research trainees enrolled in the European PhD on S.R. & C., postgraduates
and research trainees in other national PhD programmes, as well as special target groups with
access difficulties, such as women, the disabled and researchers from less favoured EU regions
who can profit from the ODL training system and the network's long-term after-event
dissemination of multimedia products.
Summer school activities include face-to-face workshops, lectures, and presentations as well as
mediated virtual events such as Internet forum discussions, web videoconferencing, and
streaming videos. Important themes are discussed at individual, group and plenary levels on the
same day, guaranteeing learning of unusual intensity and quality. Young researchers are
assisted in making appointments to meet personally and discuss particular issues with guest
speakers.
