Summer Academies are designed to support scholarly networks and to contribute to closer ties among research activities in and outside Europe and the Middle East. Summer Academies give young scholars an opportunity to discuss relevant issues within an international group of up to 24 doctoral and postdoctoral colleagues in an international and multidisciplinary framework over a period of 10–14 days. Summer Academies contribute to the internationalization of the scholarly program of EUME and the enlargements of the implied scholarly networks. They also serve as an instrument recruiting young scholars for the EUME research program. The Summer Academies are either held in Berlin, at a European partner institute, or at a research institute in a Middle Eastern country.
