Odysseus Academic Network Conference: "Schengen: Quo Vadis?" (2 days)

What

The Odysseus Academic Network organises with the Universities of Leiden, Konstanz and Brussels a Conference «Schengen: Quo Vadis?». This conference will examine the issues at the core of the current debates about Schengen and will also go back to the foundations of Schengen: What is exactly the scope of the Schengen acquis defining to which countries it applies among EU and associated States and on the basis of which criteria? What are precisely the conditions that a State must fulfil for the enlargement of the Schengen area? What are the links with the Dublin system that is formally not part of the Schengen acquis?

The conference is part of the broader «Schengen Project» launched by the Odysseus Network. Its proceedings will be published in a book in 2024.

When

On Tuesday 27 and Wednesday 28 June 2023.

Where
