Training Schools

These Training Schools aim to bring together PhD students, postdoctoral researchers and early-career researchers to discuss ways of building resilience within the academic community and defending academic freedom. Although these programmes are primarily aimed at early-career researchers and academics, they are also open to university staff and lecturers, university administrators and leaders, as well as advocates for academic freedom.
