Bridging Research and Society

This initiative is part of the Public Engagement Program (PME)—a key pillar of LM²C²'s mission to foster social impact and community outreach. The Summer School acts as a bridge between advanced research in economics and social sciences and the next generation of students, offering them direct insight into the real-world challenges and dynamics of the labor market.

In this context, the "Summer School" bridges advanced research in economics and social sciences and new generations of students, offering them an opportunity to understand the challenges and dynamics of the labor market.
