ELSA UCP Lisboa
ELSA UCP Summer School - Lisbon 2011
Legal Challenges on Migration and Refugees
The Summer School!
From 24th till 31st of July
We are preparing an exciting academic experience regarding Migration and Refugees' policies and laws. There is no doubt that this subject is a matter of concern in both Europe and North America. The liberties that the European Union has achieved in areas such as borders, rights and citizenship, has turned it into a nest for everyone who seeks a better life. This way, how can the land of opportunities deal with the masses that come from abroad?
In this Summer School, you will have the chance of learning more and become more aware of this problem that exists in all societies, although some manage to hide it better than the others. That is why we ask you to pack for an open-minded trip, with your academic luggage and your capacity of being challenged.
Why Lisbon? Where to Stay?
The Capital of Portugal, Lisbon, is hosting this thrilling event. We are proud to announce that Lisbon was awarded as the Best Destination 2010 by the European Consumers Choice organization, because of its history and the vanguard path towards its future. That is why we recommend and welcome you to experience by yourself this cosmopolitan city.
Regarding the Accommodation, you will be staying in the wonderful 4 star Hotel Marriott, near Law Faculty of Catholic University of Portugal and close by to one of Lisbon's main Train stations - Sete Rios.
