Spring School for Master- and PhD Students in Social Work in Europe 2010

The fourth year of the Spring School was held in April 20 - 24, 2010 in Ostrava, again in campus of the Technical University of Ostrava, attended by 31 students and academics from European partner universities. Also 3 academics and 8 students from the Faculty of Social Studies and Faculty of Arts, University of Ostrava participated in this event. Due to cancelled flights caused by volcano erruption on Iceland 7 active students and academics from the University of Kuopio in Finland and University of Hertfordshire – United Kingdom were forced to give up their planned active participation. The programme had to be adapted to this fact and the scheduled Saturday workshop Methodological aspects of research in social sciences by ass.prof. Dr. Ivana Louckova from the University of Ostrava has been cancelled and will be realized during the next Spring School, which hopefully will not be influenced by forces of nature.

All presentations from students and academics were of high quality and therefore intensively discussed. The feedback in an open space discussion gave presenters new ideas for further developments of their work. During breaks and meals participants had time to share ideas and projects, evenings were used for visiting the opera of Ostrava and other cultural activities. After four years the ERIS Spring School has created it’s own logic and charm – and thus has established itself as an important part of all ERIS activities.

We look forward to welcoming you to the next Spring School, which will be held on April 26 – 30, 2011 in Ostrava.
