6th meeting of the PhD-Network

The PhD-network on third sector and civil society studies was founded in 2000 by the Center of Civil Society Studies of the London School of Economics. Since then the best PhD students in the field of third sector and civil society studies around Europe were invited to annual network-meetings in London, Dublin, Stockholm and Tilburg. In 2006 the network-meeting was hosted by the Research Institute for Nonprofit Organisations at the Wirtschaftsuniversität Wien (Vienna University of Economics and Business Administration), one of the members of the CINEFOGO Network of Excellence.

To discuss current or future research topics
To allow the students create a network with other students from other European countries and other faculties and disciplines.CINEFOGO is an acronym for Network of Excellence “Civil Society and New Forms of Governance in Europe – the Making of European Citizenship”.
