Summer School des Projekts EUROPAST

The Europast Summer Schools are designed to offer theoretical and methodological training, whilst placing a strong emphasis on supporting the development of early-career researchers (ECRs) in their chosen fields, promoting research integrity, conduct, and communication.

The 2025 Summer School will take place at the Leibniz Centre for Contemporary History (ZZF) in Potsdam and across various heritage sites in Berlin. It aims to gather early career researchers and provide insights into research integrity, career pathways and research communication by focusing on the practice of several local memorial institutions.

The Summer School will run from the 23 to the 27 of June 2025, with a daily timetable divided into four modules:

• Conversations. Keynote presentations followed by a discussion;
• Workshops. Conducting biographical and life history interviews; Archival pedagogy and education;
• Presentations. 10-minute lightning talks by ECRs on their work;
• Guided Tours. Leistikowstrasse Memorial in Potsdam; Berlin Wall Memorial; Berlin’s Monuments; Exhibition of the Stasi Records Archive; Stasi Museum; Tours of Potsdam.
