Overview
Our mission at Frankfurt School – International Advisory Services has always been closely aligned with the UN economic development mandate. The Summer Academy is a unique practitioner platform where you can develop the leadership skills necessary to achieve the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Our Summer Academy is designed to provide tangible take-home value: what you learn with us in Frankfurt, you can apply straight away in your own organisation. More than 1,000 participants over 20 years can’t be wrong – our trainings are cutting edge, delivered by leading experts in their field. Yet, most important for the great success of our Summer Academies is the profile of the participants. You bring the regional expertise, diversity of backgrounds and the unique practitioner’s perspective. Learning from each other is an integral part of our training philosophy. This is your opportunity to stretch your network all around the globe.
What to Expect
Our lectures and the debates among participants will be led by Frankfurt School’s world-class faculty as well as a number of external guest speakers from development institutions who are leaders in their fields.
Each participant chooses one track though there will be plenty of interaction among participants, including in parallel sessions on one morning. Participants will have access to extensive material and lecture notes as input for our highly interactive sessions. Frankfurt School Green Finance and Inclusive Finance Diploma students will meet on campus to discuss key trends in their respective fields. The joint discussions and the various tracks are an excellent progression from our existing FS- E-Campus courses, though can also be taken independently.
A set of site-visits to leading industry players in the Frankfurt area and social events throughout the week at the Frankfurt School campus will offer plenty of networking opportunities.
