The conference will also include a RegPol2 workshop organized by six PhD students, who are researching peripheralization processes in Estonia. The researchers from Estonia, Germany, Netherlands and Canada will introduce their first results focusing on Estonian regional- and innovations policies and the role of public leaders shaping peripheralization. One of them is Geomedia PhD student Bianka Plüschke-Altof. Consultant Rivo Noorkõiv will moderate the session that offers researchers as well as practitioners the opportunity to give feedback to the preliminary research results. The English-speaking session takes place on the 3rd of November 2016 at the Omicum of Tartu University.
