EULINC

The North-Caucasus Federal University of Stavropol (Russia) in cooperation with the CEELES of the University of Graz (Austria) organized both in 2014 and 2015 Winter Schools on EU Law in the North Caucasus (EULINC). Drawing on the successful experience of the EU-financed Summer School EULISC (EU Law in the South Caucasus), the EULINC Winter Schools in Pyatigorsk was designed to spread knowledge on EU Law, EU integration and Eurasian integration, conflict resolution, as well as the challenges faced in the light of the Eurasian Integration. The Winter School hosted approximately 20 students from all countries of the wider Caucasus region and offered a platform to discuss and elaborate on current topics in the field of EU law with legal and political relevance for EU-Russia relations and EU versus Eurasian integration. Academic experts and scholars from both Europe and Russia will gave lectures, feeding into each other by raising the contemporary challenges.
