Symposia

EUIJ Waseda hosts international symposia as part of its range of outreach activities. We sometimes hold informal/closed academic sessions on the fringe of symposia for professionals and specialists. However, we ensure that our symposia also reach as wide an audience of non-specialists as possible.

In 2010 EUIJ at Waseda will organize an international symposium in relation to the Waseda-Oxford Project in EU-Japan political relations, and will invite Dr H. Mayer of Oxford, Professor T. Börzel of Berlin, and Professor T. Risse of Berlin.
