Call for Applications: In Between? 2025

Join us in the search for local histories in the borderlands of Europe by participating in the 2025 edition of the In Between? project!

Are you passionate about history, memory, and borders? The In Between? Summer School invites students and young professionals (18–26) in the arts and humanities to explore the German-Polish borderland.
Join us this summer, from 21 to 31 August 2025, in Görlitz (Germany) and Zgorzelec (Poland)—a unique cross-border city—to explore local histories, uncover stories of the past, and create a new episode of the In Between? podcast.

‘In Between?’, an educational project running since April 2016, aims to explore the history of the 20th century and its legacy in border regions. The participants are given the opportunity to conduct oral history research in European borderlands. Gaining theoretical knowledge and interdisciplinary and practical skills, they record history’s witnesses, local activists and representatives from local institutions, in order to create a podcast about the specificities of the border region they visit.
