SUMMER SCHOOLS

The interdisciplinary summer school on “Sustainable Synergies: Bridging Tourism and Agriculture through Supply Chains and Logistics” brought together 29 partners forming the CEEPUS network “Tourism and Agriculture Sustainable Alliances #TASA network” coordinated by the Faculty of Logistics of the University of Maribor. The aim of the summer school was to highlight the importance of logistics and supply chains in the process of linking two economic activities, agriculture and tourism. The programme of the summer school included lectures by international experts in the fields of logistics, tourism, agriculture and management; workshops focused on the green and digital transition and develop transferable competences by managers and professionals in all these fields.

The summer school programme was complemented by a social programme in the afternoon, excursions and fieldwork. The main part of the summer school was working in interdisciplinary teams on case studies where participants perceived concrete logistical problems encountered in the integration of agricultural and tourism supply chains and accordingly came up with concrete solutions that are in line with the green and digital transition.
