The 10-day summer school program will be made out of lectures and workshops of numerous prominent experts (theoretical and practical oriented). Students will have classes in the morning and in the afternoon, combined with study time. Visits to domestic and international institutions will be a part of the program to ensure dynamics and opportunity to understand hands- on approach from practitioners. Summer school will also include extracurricular activities that will allow networking among participants.

The first, pilot, edition of the summer school project for social sciences students was implemented in 2006 and gathered 35 students (from SEE and EU) for 7 days in Sarajevo to teach them Balkan studies and to give them the opportunity to discuss relevant issues related to South-East Europe and the European Union. Until today, 200 ISSS participants went through the summer school and gained valuable insight on human rights, transitional justice, legal system and many other relevant topics for the region of South-East Europe.

Each year, a number of essays elaborated by the participants of the summer school are gathered in the "International Journal of Rule of Law, Transitional Justice and Human Rights". You can download the five volumes here: http://bit.ly/1CJQDnH.
