A.A. 2023-2024
BIP - Balkan Route(s). Studying through European Borderlands
Participating universities
- Università degli Studi di Padova
- University of Osnabrück, Germany
- University of Zagreb
Coordinator: Università degli Studi di Padova (Prof. Paolo De Stefani)
The long summer of migration in 2015 saw an increasing number of people on the move trying to reach Western and Northern Europe via the so-called 'Balkan route'. Since 2015, the pressure on the mechanisms of the European migration and border regime has increased, so the Dublin system, one of the cornerstones of the EU migration policy, was de facto suspended. With the closure of the route and the conclusion, in 2016, of the EU-Turkey deal, the Western Balkans has become a ‘waiting space’, a ‘dumping ground’ for migrants. The programme will focus on this region, the ongoing EU accession process, and the integration of the Balkans into the European migration and border regime.
The programme explores the Europeanization of migration and border policies, aspects of externalisation and securitization of control procedures, and the different forms of (im)mobility and migration. Questions to be addressed include: How images shape our ideas about the Balkans? How the Balkans Route narrative has shaped current ideas and prejudices about mobility and marginalisation?
The programme includes an excursion to Zagreb, Croatia, from 19 to 22 March 2024 and a pre- and post-excursion online sessions. During the excursion, students from Osnabruek, Zagreb and Padua attend seminars organised at the University of Zagreb and meet local NGOs and other organisations.

BIP - Digital Constitutionalism and Platform Governance
Participating universities
- Università degli Studi di Padova
- Dublin City University
- University of Bremen
- Additional partners without students in the mobility include the University of Salerno and the University of Groningen.
Coordinator: Università degli Studi di Padova
The course is divided in two parts:
- Part one: 15 hours online lectures (6 times 2.5 hours) – from May 3 to June 28.
- Part two: 5-days in presence at the University of Padua – from September 25 to September 29 (total: 30 hours)
As part of this interdisciplinary blended intensive program, students will explore the intersections between digital constitutionalism and platform governance. The course aims at providing students with the theoretical, analytical and methodological tools to make sense of the values and principles that (should) guide regulatory arrangements for the digital age, while critically addressing actors’ interactions and power positions as well as power limitations in the same context. The general theme will be articulated in two sub-themes – values and fundamental rights and digital and green transition – around which a variety of educational activities will be organised. The program will also provide participants transversal skills, including: public speaking, group work, intercultural competences and the know-how needed for effective interventions in digital and platform governance.
As part of the first virtual component of the BIP students will explore topics at the intersection of digital constitutionalism and platform governance and will get to know the other university’s students and instructors. Virtual session revolve around the following topics: “Fundamental Rights in the Digital Age”, “The Governance of Cybersecurity: Resilience, Human Rights and Democracy”, “The Content Governance Dilemma – Digital Constitutionalism, Social Media and the Search for a Global Standard” and “Green Transition, Digital Transformations and Sustainability”.
As part of the second component, in late September 2023, students and instructors will spend five days at the University of Padova. There, they will deepen their understanding of these topics through in-depth discussions, engagement with guest speakers and the development of policy briefs.
