THE CENTRE

Bilateral Agreements

One of the aims of the Research Centre for the Humanities is to sign bilateral agreements with similar Centres around the world for the exchange of scholars, common projects and other activities, where the funding of the agreed activities will be shared between the two bodies involved in the agreement.

Trilateral Agreement with Bard College (NY) and the Department of History, Archaeology and Social Anthropology of the University of Thessaly

The Agreement’s main goal is to establish a long-term research collaboration between RCH, Bard College (NY) and ΙΑΚΑ (University of Thessaly), towards the promotion of the Humanities, Social Sciences and Liberal Arts. In this direction, the collaboration will include the conception and development of projects of common interests, exchanges of staff and the organization of common scientific events, such as workshops, conferences and summer schools.

Bilateral Agreement with the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN)
This Agreement establishes the framework for collaboration between the two Centres in areas of mutual interest for a period of 5 years. Topics for potential collaborative projects include the new kinds of epistemological, historiographical and sociological questions that are coming to surface as a result of the work done at CERN and other sites of related research, the long term planning of the future accelerators.

Bilateral Agreement with the Max Planck Institute for the History of Science (MPIWG), Berlin
