This course is a part of the PhD efficiency week 2024 (25/03/24 - 29/03/24) organized by for PhD students of the Faculty of Law. Other courses included in this trajectory are:

The PhD pitch and round table will consist of 2 parts:

The roundtable discussion will allow for a general discussion about the research pillars of Sustainability & Resilience and facilitate ideas and contributions in line with the aims of the Faculty Strategy Plan which is in place until 2025.
