The "Summer Academy on OSCE" is organised by Austrian Study Centre for Peace & Conflict Resolution (ASPR) under the Patronage of the Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE).
The purpose of the "Summer Academy on OSCE" is to expand and deepen knowledge about the OSCE and to contribute to its various activities. The courses and special events are designed to provide diplomats who are going to work with OSCE delegations and institutions, as well as scholars, NGO representatives, etc. intending to co-operate with the OSCE in the areas of international diplomatic and civilian missions with the following:
thorough knowledge of the history, functioning, and current activities of the OSCE; and
training in working more effectively within the OSCE diplomatic and OSCE-NGO milieu.
Furthermore, the Summer Academy provides opportunities to explore ways for the OSCE to enhance its existing, or to develop new capabilities in preventive diplomacy, peace-making, peace-keeping and peace-building.
