..Mission and Objectives
The Centre for the Study of European Politics and Society (CSEPS) was established in order to promote a greater awareness within Israel of the growing importance of Europe and of the European Union, and to offer BGU students the opportunity to learn about contemporary political and social developments in Europe. We have been able to offer scholarships to BGU students, allowing them to conduct research on contemporary European affairs, to participate in workshops and student summer schools, and have helped establish new courses on Europe at the university. CSEPS also brings a flavour of European culture to the university campus through cultural events, films and talks by European personalities.Main Projects / Activities
CSEPS's activities cover a variety of different areas, such as developing links with European institutions and launching collaborative research projects with European colleagues. CSEPS organises international conferences and workshops bringing European researchers, decision makers, diplomats and political figures to Ben-Gurion University of the Negev. Main Projects: • Creating New Constituencies for Peace • Israeli Grand Strategy towards the EU • Euro-Mediterranean Young Researchers Network • European Elections Monitor • The Ambassadors Forum • Israeli European Policy Network
