The lesson will be available on 8th October to the students and speakers of the school at 2pm CEST on the Zoom platform
Following the success of the first edition, the ISPM International Summer School on Project Management, the first school in the world with a specific focus on anti-smoking research, is ready to be launched. Due the pandemic of Covid-19, the edition has been postponed to March 2021 but inaugural lesson will be online on 8 October only to the students, speakers and institutional partners.
The students will have the possibility to introduce themselves, so as to immediately recreate the atmosphere of sharing and collaboration that is the driving force of the School.
During the event, two former school students, Hesham Nasr and Marta Mangione, will provide a powerful insight on their experience: thanks to the school, they have been involved in some CoEHAR projects and became project manager with an expertise in the field of tobacco harm reduction.
This inaugural lesson will proceed according to the following schedule.
