International Law 2013

Needless to say, more than enriching experience...

For an International Law student deeply interested in the functioning of the international organisations and roles of different actors in the international affairs, three weeks spent in the heart of the international world was, needless to say, more than enriching experience. What I liked most is the fact that each professor had different background (ranging from geopolitics, political science or law professors to environmental experts and ambassadors) and thus all of them had a possibility to present us Global Governance topic from whole another perspective and then enable us to perceive this phenomena objectively and freely.

Twenty seven of my colleagues were almost all from completely different countries but during three sunny weeks in beautiful Geneva we managed to find same language, mutual interests and what is maybe most valuable, learn from each other. Friends I made there are the ones I’ll cherish for the rest of my life and the knowledge I gained is the one I’ll be proud to share with my peers at my faculty in Belgrade, Serbia.

Geneva Summer Schools is certainly something I wouldn’t recommend to everybody – but only to those I care about most, for valuable things has to be kept in small circles of privileged!
