2020

Ivana Skazlic and Tiffany Williams at the Institute for Advanced Studies in Vienna look back on the experiences of the past years on the IHS Blog.

Bringing together 20 partners across sectors and disciplines, PLATO equips 15 researchers with innovative training at doctoral level. We asked our project partners about the benefits of collaborating with other sectors during a doctorate.

The dissemination event The euro: no legitimacy without solidarity? took place on 25 September 2020 and presented some of the findings from PLATO and their implications to a broad online audience.

PLATO supervisor Bas Denters received the award for Best Supervisor 2019 by the Netherlands Institute of Government (NIG).

CEPS organised an online meeting where PLATO visiting fellows Gil Thompson and Radu-Mihai Triculescu discussed their work with academics and practitioners in the field of Justice and Home Affairs.

Due to the Covid-19 outbreak, this year's ECPR Joint Sessions was held virtually 14-17 April 2020. Joris Melman took part with a paper on public opinion on the euro and what it tells us about the EU's legitimacy.

After the euro crisis in 2009, the common currency was heavily criticised by many politicians. But how do European citizens perceive the euro? Joris Melman studies this question in his PhD project.
