KORANET Summer School on European-Korean Cooperation in Environmental and Social Sciences

From first project ideas to a successful implementation of projects in intercultural and multidisciplinary teams, the work of researchers and project managers includes a wide range of challenges. KORANET offers a Summer School for young researchers and project managers from Korea and Europe to learn more about all steps of project management processes in international scientific projects.

• how Project Cycle Management works and how a logical framework can be applied;
• how a project should be designed;
• how projects are planned and managed in financial terms;
