News archive - Scholarships for debates on European integration available
This foundation, an independent Dutch nonprofit organisation and think tank, was founded in Maastricht in 1992. Its aim is to provide a broad, global forum to discuss issues that are of central importance to European integration. The Cicero Foundation has from its start always actively supported the integration of the countries of Central and Eastern Europe, the Balkans and Turkey into the European Union.
Scholarships are available for scientific researchers from the CEECs. From November 1994 to January 2007 the Cicero Foundation has granted 151 scholarships, 116 to nationals from the Central and Eastern European countries and the remaining EU candidate countries, 35 to applicants from the rest of the world.
University based PhD candidates and scientific researchers from Central and Eastern Europe, the Balkans and Turkey may apply for scholarships that enable them to participate free of charge in the Great Debate Seminars organised by the Foundation.
Qualified applicants are invited to send a detailed letter, accompanied by copies of diplomas, by email to the Paris bureau of the Cicero Foundation. Applications can be sent until 25 days before the seminar. Information about their acceptance is sent between two and three weeks before the seminar takes place.
The Cicero Foundation will publish the forthcoming Great Debate seminars on a three-monthly basis.
If you want to be kept informed on a regular basis on the Cicero seminar programme, you can register for a newsletter via the website.
