Annotation
This course is a special cross-campus partnership, joining students from several European universities. Each year, students work together to develop a common proposal to address challenges facing contemporary European governance. This year, the course focuses on one of the main topics of current European and global policy - challenges of climate change. Students from different universities will be assigned to groups to work on the positions of individual member countries, which they present on an ongoing basis. Students partly participate in joint seminars and partly work in groups independently. Finally, a simulation of the European Council is held, in which they should negotiate and create a common EU position.
The focus of the course is suitable for the involvement of students from various EU and non-EU countries, as it will allow them to connect and cooperate in finding a compromise and negotiating a common position in the European Council. Students not only get acquainted with the focus of the course (Climate Change), they learn to work in an international team, to find a compromise, which must also argue well and negotiate with each other.
