With the new methodology of integration processes taking center stage, participants engage in an intellectual exchange that goes beyond the conventional, exploring innovative avenues to deepen their understanding of Euro-integrative processes.

By embracing this forward-thinking strategy, the School demonstrates its commitment to not only dissecting current issues but also proactively shaping the discourse and strategies that will drive the Euro-integrative landscape in the years to come.
