We are happy to share the results of the recruitment process for the eleventh edition of the In Between? summer school, taking place in Lübeck, Germany, from 8–18 September 2026.
The call for applications drew interest from students and young professionals across the European Union, aged 18–26, with backgrounds in the history, humanities, and social sciences. The Selection Team was impressed by the diverse range of experiences and the strong motivation shown by all applicants.
After careful consideration, we are pleased to announce that the following candidates have been selected to participate:
• Addison S.
• Aleksandra T.
• Elena P.
• Kristofers K.
• Ksenia K.
• Lukas Maria D.
• Marvin H.
• Natalia K.
We thank everyone who applied and expressed interest in the programme.
During the programme, participants will explore memory cultures shaped by the former inner German border near Lübeck. After a preparatory online session in August, they will join workshops on oral history, sound recording, and podcast production, followed by field research in and around Lübeck. Their findings will be turned into a podcast episode, later published on Spotify and other streaming platforms as part of the In Between? podcast series.
Since 2016, In Between? has explored 26 regions and received a Europa Nostra Special Mention in 2018. Learn more here.
