Siberian Federal University

The Summer School will focus on the issue of scale in environmental governance, with a particular emphasis on the issues of local governance and interlinkages of local actors and institutions with existing and emerging national and global environmental regimes. In addition to classes on concepts and theories describing scale issues and their implications on environmental policies and management, the School will provide rich opportunities for practical application – about a half of the School lengths will be devoted to supervised case study research work in thematic groups, including field work in the beautiful Siberian nature.

The workshop will include three groups of participants:

• early‐career researchers affiliated with ReSET or Tempus projects (by invitation, funded
• according to applicable ReSET or Tempus rules);
• early‐career researchers from the APN region1 (by open call in competitive selection process, funded by APN);
• self‐funded (local) researchers as observers (by open call in competitive selection process).
