DESCRIPTION The XIXth edition of the Summer School on “The Protection of Fundamental Rights in Europe” aims to provide undergraduate students, practitioners, civil servants and young researchers (Ph.D. candidates – Post docs) with an understanding of the role played by fundamental rights at national, European and international level. The Summer School will focus on the the interaction between different levels of protection of fundamental rights in Europe. This implies, inter alia, recent developments on the European Convention of Human Rights and the European Union systems of protection of fundamental rights and shortcomings on the protection of fundamental rights at national level (i.e. by Constitutional Courts).

The Summer School places a particular emphasis on the interaction between professors and students, who are expected to demonstrate, during the lectures, a strong interest and a general knowledge of the topics. Students are encouraged to actively engage in the courses.
