The Visegrad Summer School is a 10-day program held in Kraków at Villa Decius, bringing together young professionals from the Visegrad Group countries, Central and Eastern Europe, and the Western Balkans. Since its 20th edition, the project has adopted a “Future Literacy” approach, which fosters innovative thinking and the search for novel solutions. It provides a space for learning, exchanging ideas, and building lasting relationships. Participants are encouraged to break away from conventional ways of thinking, engage in interdisciplinary dialogues, and develop strong networks. The 23rd edition was held under the title “Future of Enlargement.”
24th edition of the Visegrad Summer School was hosted in Villa Decius between 7 and 15 of July.
