It combines in person and remote learning, launching with online sessions in March and April, before convening an in-person summer school in Zagreb in May. The program then continues online until the end of October 2024, when the participants will once more reconvene in Zagreb.

Application deadline is January 15, 2024 and detailed info about the program and the application process could be found on this link.
