The Summer Seminar this year will take place from June 7th to 12th on the birth island of Aphrodite, in Nicosia.
The topic is based on Heraclitus’ famous statement “War, father of all things” - How Wars Affected the World.
The Application will be done in two rounds, one from 8th to 14th and one from 15th to 21st of March, for the uncertain ones. 30 to 35 attendees are expected.
