Project Description

Vanessa Hadžić, Heike Karge, Sabine Rutar

In May 2012, a group of Croatian and German students together with their professors embarked for a study trip to the northeastern Adriatic region. The idea for this excursion was developed as part of a broader bilateral research project which was generously funded by the DAAD from 2010-2012.

The excursion was developed and organized by Vanni D’Alessio, Vjeran Pavlaković (both University of Rijeka), Sabine Rutar (Institute for East and Southeast European Studies, Regensburg) and Heike Karge (University of Regensburg) and supported by a student assistant team consisting of Katharina Schalk, Manuela Brenner (both University of Regensburg) and Tea Marković (University of Rijeka). We thank the University of Regensburg for a substantial financial contribution to the excursion.
