On September 13th, over half of the staff and researchers of ISET and the ISET Policy Institute were invited to Gdansk for an annual meeting of the FREE Network, where they presented research papers and exchanged ideas with leading academics and policymakers.
With Ukraine and Belarus having taken on hosting duties in 2017 and 2018 respectively, it was Poland which served as the meeting point for this year. The conference was entitled ‘Policy Lessons After 30 Years of Research on Transition’, and held, appropriately enough, at the European Solidarity Center in Gdansk on September 13th. The three decades in the conference’s title refer to the thirty years since the 1989 parliamentary elections held in Poland which helped bring about the end of communist domination in Central and Eastern Europe.
Based at the International School of Economics at Tbilisi State University (ISET), the ISET Policy Institute (ISET-PI) is one of the first university-based think tanks in the South Caucasus. ISET-PI complements the educational mission of ISET by delivering training, conducting research and analysis, expressing views on policy, and providing a professional platform for policy discussions and debates.
ISET-PI is seeking for a researcher, preferably MA student in the last year of his/her studies or a recent graduate.
