Organizers of the GRAM research seminar
Guillaume Devin (Full Professor at Sciences Po, CERI)
Mathilde Leloup (PhD candidate at Sciences Po, CERI)
Sarah Tanke (PhD candidate at Sciences Po, CERI)
The GRAM research seminar is organized in cooperation with Sciences Po’s Doctoral school and the CERI (Center for International Studies).
Description
In a socio-historical and transdisciplinary perspective, the research seminar on multilateralism aims at questioning change at the international level with a focus on international organizations. The seminar is less meant as a space for presenting ongoing work and rather as an opportunity for collective research discussion: questions on the state of the research, on methods and on results of the research presented by the speaker are prioritized.
Since 1 January 2020, GRAM has become "Groupement de recherche sur l'action multilatérale" as a structure financed and approved by the CNRS. Read the text Thinking Multilateralism: A Research Programme Supported and Funded by the CNRS, written by Frédéric Ramel and Guillaume Devin.
Venue, time and registration
Unless indicated otherwise, each session takes place on a Thursday, from 5pm-7pm, at CERI (56 rue Jacob, 75006 Paris). Online registration is required and possible here.
Audience
The GRAM seminar is a research seminar. It is open to all, but mainly aimed at an academic audience, from students to professors from any institution. In order to be added to the GRAM mailing list, please contact Sarah Tanke.
