This section will provide an overview of the EU programmes for funding at a centralized and decentralized level, and inculcate in the students the objectives, mechanisms and methods for locating the calls with different types of funding. The student will also learn, with the support of case studies and interactive workshops, how to design a successful EU project. The Seminars and the practical planning activities will be held in English by Community Advisors who have years of experience in planning, advising and technical assistance.

Meetings with experts, advisors and lobbyists who work in Brussels will also help the students to get a more concrete idea of the work in European public affairs and of lobbying activities.
