RegPol² doctoral school in Tartu

In the framework of the RegPol² project, the first international doctoral school took place in Tartu in February 2-6, 2015. The school was focused on scientific concepts and policy making related to spatial polarisation in Central and Eastern Europe. It consisted of keynote lectures by the invited academics, presentations by the project participants, discussions and brainstorming sessions as well as outings for case studies’ analysis. As a partner in the project, Geomedia introduced Estonian local governments and regional policy developments, including peripheral trends. The meeting was organized by doctoral students from the University of Tartu Faculty of Economics and Business Administration employed in the RegPol² project. The next meeting will be held in Germany in spring 2015.
