Costs and Funding
Costs and Funding
We will apply for funding through the Cologne Summer Schools. The Department of Social and Cultural Anthropology will also contribute to the costs. We hope that this will at least enable us to provide funding for the flights.
Participants will probably have to cover at least the costs for food and transportation on-site as well as visa fees. Please note that it will be the student's responsibility to take out adequate travel health insurance.
Further information on preparation will be given during the preparatory meeting in the summer semester 2025.
