 Dear all 


please circulate the following announcement to anyone interested:
The Netherlands Institute at Athens (NIA) and the Athens Ethnographic Film Festival "Ethnofest" are happy to announce the 2016  Summer School "Visual Ethnography of Cityscapes"organised in collaboration with staff from Universiteit Leiden / Leiden University and other Dutch and Greek universities.About the course: 
Nowadays, visual anthropology has become an almost indispensable tool for anyone engaging in ethnographic research, visual analysis, studies of material culture or critical engagements with cinema, photography and other forms of cultural display.
This intensive course will take place from July 6th to July 29th and will accept applications from outstanding last year BA, Master & 1st year PhD students in Social/Political Sciences and Humanities.
The aim of the seminar is to give students the experience of filming in a highly diverse and multi-layered urban setting, present the product (film) of their research in Athens in a special section in the Athens Ethnographic Film Festival (November 2016) and have an overview of current debates and research topics in visual anthropology and ethnography. By participating and learning the filming and production process, the students gain practical experience in the new context, use their skills, make new contacts and learn how to present their findings within wider local and global processes.For more information on the course and the application form please consult our website, http://www.nia.gr/nl/onderwijs/huidig-cursusaanbod or contact nia at nia.grDeadline for application: 25 May 2016. 


Thank you in advance,Tryfon
