  8. Background The Austrian Federal Ministry for Education, Science and Research (BMBWF) and the Institute for the Danube Region and Central Europe (IDM) created the Danubius Award in 2011, with the intention to honour persons with extraordinary achievements in their scientific activity and output in relation to the Danube Region. The Award To complement this award with a specific prize for young scientists – the so-called „Danubius Young Scientist Award” competition is now open for nominations! 14 young scientists will be granted this award – one for each country that is part of the EU Strategy for the Danube Region [Austria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Germany, Hungary, Moldova, Montenegro, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Romania and Ukraine]*. The award seeks to highlight the scientific work and talent of young researchers and enhance the visibility of the scientific community in the region. Moreover, the award encourages young scientists to engage in the scientific examination of the multifaceted issues and questions specifically related to the Danube region. The award will endow 1,350 Euro for each winner of the Danubius Young Scientist Award. An award ceremony is planned for 14 November 2024 in Krems, Austria, the details of which will be announced in due time. Moreover, thanks to the ongoing kind support by the European Commission´s Joint Research Centre the JCR is planning to invite the awardees to visit one of their facilities in Ispra, Italy, in 2025. NEW: For the attribution to the country, the nominating institution is the determining factor. Meaning, if for example, an Austrian institution would nominate a researcher for the award, the citizenship of the researcher itself is irrelevant, the price will be attributed to Austria. With that, we want to open the nomination process for all young researchers from an institution within the EUSDR and thereby contributing to the Danube Region research landscape. Award Criteria Scientific excellence and innovative approach of the academic work Thematic relevance of the scientific work for issues/problems of the Danube Region Relevance of the scientific work beyond national borders Potential of the candidate (for example: integration in international networks, participation in scientific projects, publication history, experience in teaching etc.) No formal age limit – BUT limitation to participants that have received their Master/PhD max. 5 years ago (= after 1 January 2019) Submissions of candidates holding only a bachelor degree will not be accepted Document submission Documents have to be submitted in English (exception: copy of the academic title received) and as three PDF files: Nomination of the candidate(s) by the institution (recommendation letter – max. 1 page) One single document about the candidate consisting of the following information: Summary of the scientific work (e.g. thesis, dissertation, journal article, scientific publication etc.) and its specific relevance for the Danube Region Curriculum Vitae including publication list of the candidate (in total max. 3 pages) – the limitation of 3 pages applies to the part B only (CV and publication list) Copy of the document related to the candidate´s highest academic title received (to verify the criteria of max. 5 years after master degree or PhD degree). Nominations must be submitted via the online form below. For any technical issues or questions, please contact d.martinek@idm.at The deadline for submitting nominations is Friday, 3 May 2024 at 23:59 CEST. Selection process Candidates for the Danubius Young Scientist Award can come from all scientific disciplines. The nomination of the award candidate cannot be made by the candidate himself/herself but he or she has to be nominated by their hosting scientific institution (university, academy of sciences, research organization etc.). The number of nominations per institution is limited to five, meaning every university, academy of sciences or research organization etc. can nominate up to a maximum of five candidates in total. However, the five candidates have to come from different faculties or departments, institutes or research groups within the organization. If more than five applications arrive, those arriving via the rectorate or management of the organization will be given preference, as it is assumed that they have gone through an internal coordination process. An international expert jury will be responsible for assessing all incoming nominations and for determining a final ranking list. The award will be recommended for the highest ranked candidates. https://www.idm.at/activities/awards/danubius-young-scientist-award/
  9. Coventry University (CU) is inviting applications from suitably-qualified graduates for a fully funded PhD studentship examining Contentious Civil Societies and Democratisation in Southeastern Europe. Candidates will be based in the Centre for Trust, Peace and Social Relations – a research centre in the Institute for Peace and Security. Many current developments in Post-Communist Southeast European politics confound analysts. Firstly, while the overall trend is towards democratic backsliding, there is much variation between states to the extent that democracy databases often disagree; for example Romania’s democracy score has been on a negative trajectory since the mid-2010s according to Freedom House, but a positive trajectory according to V-Dem. Part of this confusion arises from the fact that, with the sudden emergence of battle-ready civil societies in the 2010s, most of these societies are far more contentious that they were in the 2000s. Contention is notoriously difficult to evaluate from the perspective of democracy evaluators. This ‘contention’ conundrum is of interest to political scientists and democracy promoters worldwide: are polarised, contentious civil societies better understood as catalysing or spoiling factors in young democracies? The former interpretation prevails in much rationalist political science theorising while the latter argument is rooted in agonistic democratic theory and the new social movements literature. Activists struggling for emancipatory causes are at once celebrated by democratic theorists as seeking to expand the democratic realm and (often implicitly) denigrated as drivers of polarisation by rationalist political scientists, especially as in Southeastern Europe where these activists are struggling against (often pro-EU) political elites. The whole situation calls for a closer look. The proposed PhD project would be a mostly qualitative, possibly ethnographic study focussed in either one or two countries of Southeastern Europe that would ideally facilitate access to either or both liberal-emancipatory and illiberal civil society actors. Methodologies such as participant observation, focus groups and semi-structured interviews would be encouraged to allow civil society actors themselves to outline their interests and identities in relation to aspirations for – or against - democracy and its liberal dimensions. All applications require a covering letter and a maximum 2000-word supporting statement is required showing how the applicant’s expertise and interests are relevant to the project. Entry criteria for applicants to PhD A bachelor’s (honours) degree in a relevant discipline/subject area with a minimum classification of 2:1 and a minimum mark of 60% in the project element (or equivalent), or an equivalent award from an overseas institution. PLUS The potential to engage in innovative research and to complete the PhD within 3.5 years An adequate proficiency in English must be demonstrated by applicants whose first language is not English. The general requirement is a minimum overall IELTS Academic score of 7.0 with a minimum of 6.5 in each of the four sections, or the TOEFL iBT test with a minimum overall score of 95 with a minimum of 21 in each of the four sections.

  10. PHOENIX – Serbia is known for producing elite athletes Nikola Jokic in basketball, Novak Djokovic in men’s tennis and Sergej Milinković-Savić in soccer, but tennis is one of the least popular sports because its price tag. However, Iva Sepa is using tennis as a vehicle as she adjusts to moving from Serbia to Phoenix, where she is a freshman studying business information and is on the Grand Canyon University women’s tennis team. “I started playing tennis when I was eight. Actually, my grandma brought me to the tennis courts because she was a big fan of tennis,” Sepa said. Over time her love for the game blossomed and she continued to play. Before moving to America, Sepa’s main goal was to play tennis professionally in Serbia until GCU coach Katarina Adamovic, who is also from Serbia, traveled to recruit Sepa. “When I was recruiting her, I heard lots of good things from other coaches in Serbia and connections we had, but when I sat down with her and I had to talk with her and her dad, I knew this is kind of the person and the player I want to be part of my program,” Adamovic said. Since moving to Arizona and living away from home, her family has been her main supporter during the entire process. During Sepa’s time in Arizona, she has already experienced plenty of adjustments. “The biggest change is living in another country and then our lack of language and being surrounded by another culture,” Sepa said. “It’s completely different.” Another massive change is nutrition in the states. Sepa has tried different American foods like pasta, pizza, and burgers, and she recently tried sushi. The move for Sepa was not nerve-racking; and now somewhat settled, she is enjoying her time here. “I was actually so excited I was so happy that I’m coming here. I still am because this is unreal. For me, this is a dream,” Sepa said. Sepa is playing well in her freshman season, posting a 4-1 record in singles. Her doubles record with Lailaa Bashir and Elizaveta Morozova is 6-2. It is a learning curve for both of them. “Now it’s kind of one person is at the net, the other one is in back, and I’m usually the only one at the net,” Bashir said. “So it’s just been a little bit of an adjustment to get used to. I think we’re finding some progress and we’re figuring it out.” Sepa has been playing tennis for a long time in Serbia, and in her first few months in Arizona, she noticed differences in how tennis is played compared to Serbia. “The differences are unreal here (Arizona),” Sepa said. “We have so much other opportunity to play with good players. With good coaches, even fitness and dentists. We have treatments that we don’t have in Serbia that often.” Since joining the team, she has positively impacted Adamovic, Bashir and everyone else on the team who adores her. “When she (Iva) got here, she’s just been an amazing teammate, as a freshman stepping to roll, playing at a high level, and embracing being on a team instead of playing by yourself,” Adamovic said. “She’s very light-hearted and funny and my other teammates will probably agree with that,” Bashir said. “She’s kind of the comedic relief lightheartedness and she’s a really good presence to be around.” Serbia is a country that not many people talk about, but there is something very interesting about the country. “We had an excellent food that probably a lot of people don’t. We have amazing athletes. The country is really pretty and nice,” said Sepa, whose favorite Serbian dish is Ćevapi, which is a grilled dish of minced meat. The Lopes’ travel on the road Friday to play North Texas. Every match is pivotal moving forward as the WAC tournament, which starts April 18, rapidly approaches. https://cronkitenews.azpbs.org/2024/02/19/gcu-tennis-iva-sepa-serbia/
