Ghent University: Summer School Ghent 2020

To whom it may concern

Through this e-mail we would like to inform you about two international student programs during the summer of 2020, covering the topics of “Sexual & Reproductive Health & Rights” and “Health & Migration”. These programs are organized by students at Ghent University, cooperating with dean Piet Hoebeke M.D., Ph.D. (Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences) and Olivier Degomme M.D., Ph.D. (scientific director of the International Centre for Reproductive Health).

We would like to invite all students, post-graduates and PhD students, integrated in the faculties of Medicine and Health Sciences, Psychology, Law, Political and Social Sciences and Linguistics and Philosophy, to apply for these 12-day Summer programs, from 5-16 July 2020 at Ghent University, Belgium.

Our goal is to broaden the participants’ horizons through lectures and workshops by renowned Belgian and international experts in their fields. We aim to raise awareness concerning global issues such as family planning, female rights and sexual education as well as to stimulate international research concerning infectious diseases and migrants’ health related issues. We want to give participants the opportunity to cooperate with students from different cultures and nationalities, and discuss opinions concerning ethical issues and legal frameworks. Besides an interesting and challenging educational program, a social program will be organized as well.

We hope your university will be represented among many other international students, and will help us face the global topic of ‘Sexual & Reproductive Health & Rights’ or ‘Health & Migration’.

All practical information can be found on our website: www.summerschoolghent.com

We would like to encourage you to spread the word about our program among the students of your university.

A small summary of the program can be found below, which can be used to spread the information on different platforms.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Thank you for your attention.

Kind regards
