Birthday

Degree Programme
BA International Relations and International Organization, 3rd year
 
Special Area of Interest
Media and political communication and the Middle East
 
Why are you participating in the IRSP?
Even though I am also writing my bachelor’s thesis at the moment, I decided to apply for the IRSP because I wanted to gain more practical experience and this is a great opportunity to work together with other IRIO students on a topic that I’m very interested in. I also thought it would be a great chance to see whether doing research is something that I would like to do in the future as well.
 
What do you like particularly about your specific research-topic?
Over the past years, I’ve taken some courses in journalism and communication and I find this research to be very interesting in that it combines both IR and media studies. It is also interesting to see how important communication is considered to be in creating legitimacy for organizations like the Special Tribunal for Lebanon and international courts in general.
 
What are you expecting from participating in the IRSP?
I hope to learn a lot about the practice of doing research and to put some theoretical knowledge into practice and I’m also looking forward to learning new things from the others in my research team!
 
What is a quote that you really like/that you can relate to?
“If I have seen a little further it is only by standing on the shoulders of Giants.” (Isaac Newton)

Birthday

Degree Programme
Master Security Studies
 
Special Area of Interest
Middle East, Energy and Climate, Postcolonialism
 
Why are you participating in the IRSP?
To be able to do research for someone who has a need for it, rather than for an academic grade
 
What do you like particularly about your specific research-topic?
It deals with how effectively the mission of the Special Tribunal for Lebanon communicates its objectives to its audiences. This is a key problem within global governance and links with the democratic deficit within international organisations in general. It is rewarding to be able to be able to try to see how to help rather than to criticise from an ivory tower.
 
What are you expecting from participating in the IRSP?
Experience working for a partner, getting better at working effectively, working in a team and a lot of coffee drinking!
 
What is a quote that you really like/that you can relate to?
“Fake it till you make it”

Birthday

Degree Programme
BA International Relations and International Organization, 3rd year
 
Why are you participating in the IRSP?
I think that the IRSP is a very valuable opportunity for students like myself to get in touch with the actual practicalities of doing research. The close contact with the “client” institution, the challenges of incorporating their expectations and the guidance by an IRIO professor from the RUG will enable everyone from the team to grow professionally and personally. It is also a nice feeling that someone actually values and uses the research work we do.
 
What do you like particularly about your specific research-topic?
We will deal with the effectiveness of communications send out by the outreach department of the Special Tribunal for the Lebanon. This topic seems very specific at first sight but actually touches upon many general issues and debates, which I find personally very interesting. We get to work on questions such as: What is the point of International Criminal Justice? Who is it done for? The victims of a crime or the international legal community? How can terrorism be tried? These are very interesting questions about global governance and the future of international law, I think.
 
What are you expecting from participating in the IRSP?
I expect to learn as much as possible from my fellow team members and the supervising professor. I am very excited to be conducting an actual survey, to dive into a new debate in the literature, which connects the realms of international politics, law and communication
 
What is a quote that you really like/that you can relate to?
“By seeking and blundering we learn” (Johann Wolfgang von Goethe)

Birthday

Degree Programme
BA International Relations and International Organization, 3rd year
 
Special Area of Interest
International Law, Development Studies, Human Rights
 
Why are you participating in the IRSP?
To gain practical experience in doing a professional research
 
What do you like particularly about your specific research-topic?
That we are in close touch with an institution like the STL and the fact that it is in the field of international law and the outreach of international courts, an area on which there is still a lot of discussion and debate.
 
What are you expecting from participating in the IRSP?
To have a good learning experience in doing research and a broader sense of knowledge on outreach of international tribunals.
 
What is a quote that you really like/that you can relate to?
“Give me the liberty to know, to utter, and to argue freely according to conscience, above all liberties.” (John Milton, Areopagitica)
