The Frankfurt (Oder) based EGTC Center of Excellence hosts a panel on “Conditions, Challenges and Perspectives for Cross-Border Cooperation in Europe” at the International Conference “B/ORDERS IN MOTION – Current Challenges and Future Perspectives” in Frankfurt (Oder)-Słubice

On November 15-17 the Viadrina Center B/ORDERS IN MOTION – who is a member of TEIN – is organizing an international conference entitled “B/ORDERS IN MOTION – Current Challenges and Future Perspectives”. The conference takes place at the German-Polish border in the twin city Frankfurt (Oder)-Słubice in the institutions of European University Viadrina and the Collegium Polonicum.

The former EGTC Center of Excellence is hosting a panel on November 17 on “Conditions, Challenges and Perspectives for Cross-Border Cooperation in Europe” from a rather legal perspective. In this context, we would like to invite you to discuss challenges and perspectives of CBC in Europe. The panel brings together distinguished scholars and stakeholders in the ambit of CBC. The panel is hosted by Peter Ulrich and Dr. Marcin Krzymuski.

In general, the conference is open to interested scholars in the fields of B/ORDERS IN MOTION and invites the TEIN members to take part in the conference. There will also be a poster session to present the participant´s research project. The twelve thematic panels are structured along the four key topics:

-    Un/Making Borders and Boundaries
-    Borderless Labor – Labor across Borders
-    Migrating Borders & Boundaries
-    Territorial Borders: The Institutionalization of Crossings.

For further information please consult the conference webpage: https://www.borders-in-motion.de/conference-2018

We are looking forward to meeting you in Frankfurt (Oder)-Słubice in November.

Peter Ulrich & Dr. Marcin Krzymuski

Dear Marcin,

It is great to have you on our platform !  Many thanks for posting.

Can you clarify whether your conference is of an academic nature or whether there will also be testimonies from practitioners ?

As you know, we have established a Border Focal Point in DG REGIO and we are highly interested in such events - and in deepening our cooperation with the academic world.  Much progress has been made over the past few years - but we can do even more !

Dear Nathalie,

Thank you very much for your warm welcoming, message and interest in our conference in the conference “B/ORDERS IN MOTION – Current Challenges and Future Perspectives”.

We would be very happy to meet you or your colleagues at the German-Polish border in November.

The interdisciplinary conference is a primarily academic event on European borders and orders and related aspects of migration, identity, boundaries, labor across borders. Please feel free to have a look at the programme of the conference: https://www.borders-in-motion.de/conference-2018_program

Our conference panel is the only section of the conference addressing explicitly CBC/ETC related matters including views from historians, geographers, legal scholars and practitioners: https://www.borders-in-motion.de/documents/356586/0/Abstracts+Panel+D3.pdf/333e9e2b-adf5-4a2d-8208-1304b0ae4496

In our panel we would like to jointly discuss conditions, challenges and future perspectives of cross-border cooperation in Europe.

If you want we could send the conference handbook once it is completed and, of course, any further information.

Best regards from Frankfurt (Oder),

Marcin
