Invitation to Participate in the International Student Conference ‘Navigating Crisis: Law, Power, and Society in Times of Uncertainty’

The Academic Department of Social Sciences at the European Humanities University (EHU) invites undergraduate and graduate students to take part in the annual International Student Conference, which in 2026 will explore the theme: Navigating Crisis: Law, Power, and Society in Times of Uncertainty

📅 Date: June 12, 2026
📍 Location: EHU Campus (Vilnius), with online participation available for those outside Lithuania
🗣 Working Language: English

This international and interdisciplinary conference provides a dynamic platform for young researchers to present their work, exchange ideas, and engage in critical discussions on: social transformation, legal change, and the growing impact of technology on contemporary societies.

In a world shaped by political uncertainty, rapid technological development, and shifting social realities, questions of justice, participation, identity, and professional futures are becoming increasingly complex. The conference aims to explore how law, politics, media, and technology interact in shaping how societies understand, respond to, and transform in times of crisis and uncertainty. 

We welcome you to participate in one of the umbrella topics:

  • Law and Governance in Action: From Crisis Management to Systemic Resilience
  • Power and Decision-Making in Uncertainty: How to Build Smarter and Stronger Societies and Institutions? And What Not to Do?
  • Media and Communication in Crisis: Shaping Narratives That Drive Solutions
  • Inequality and Vulnerability in Crisis: Advancing Equality, Access, and Social Resilience

We especially encourage interdisciplinary approaches and original perspectives that reflect on contemporary migration processes and their impact on societies.
