Independant political think-tank and youth formation center
The Politeia network, an international partnership between students associations, was created in 2002 under the leadership of the Conférence Olivaint. It aims at developing public life through international meetings and debates. Every year, members meet during the International Summer Academy to work together on a specific topic.
The Politeia network is constituted of the following student societies : Mariano Otero Conference (Mexico), Young Diplomat's Center (Poland), Studentenforum in TSK (Germany), European Circle of Croatia, Foro Generacion del 78 (Spain), Efpolit (Slovakia) and LSE-Grimshaw Club (UK).
The main objective of our annual field trip is to meet personalities coming from both the political and business worlds, debate with them about the main challenges facing their country, and discuss issues concerning French society through a different perspective.
The international field trips take up a lot of our members' energy, through aspects such as logistic organization, preparing documents and memos and organizing the meetings.
