The PhD Summer School aims to bring together PhD students, and some of their supervisors, from various disciplines in the field of outdoor studies. This includes education (both teaching and learning), environmental education, learning outside the classroom, udeskole, leisure and recreation. The seminar aims to build on the social, cultural and critical dimensions of research and theorising in diverse outdoor practices.
This year’s seminar builds upon previous PhD summer schools, hosted by Copenhagen University in partnership with University of Edinburgh in 2015, and Technische Universität München in 2016. The focus will be to share and explore the diversity of outdoor and environmental education research going on amongst the participating PhD students and supervisors.
