Appel à candidatures prolongé: Young Talent 2019 – Energy challenges

Are you a MA/Ph.D. Student? Are you an expert in Energy challenges and interested in European cooperation?

The Young Talent event, organized on October 10 and 11 in Paris as well as November 14 and 15 in Amsterdam by the Dutch-French Network for higher education and research (RFN) and the institution for internationalization of the Dutch higher education (Nuffic), is an interactive case study in which ambitious young MA/Ph.D. students and young professionals from France and the Netherlands tackle different topics related to the way the knowledge society responds to and might alleviate various challenges within the energy sector. This event is linked with the Erasmus-Descartes Conference, which hosts over 100 senior experts and is organized by the French Embassy in the Netherlands and the Dutch Embassy in France.
