The Gran Sasso Science Institute is organising SPACERAISE, an international summer school designed to equip international students (Bachelor, Master, and PhD levels) with theoretical insights and practical skills for working with non-traditional and geospatial observational data in applied economics and quantitative geography.
The summer school will take place 18–22 May 2026, during the thematic week on Geospatial Data and Quantitative Analysis in Social Science. The faculty includes scholars and practitioners in social sciences, geography, and disaster studies, with contributors from institutions such as the European Commission and the Integrated Research on Disaster Risk (IRDR) programme. Topics addressed include natural and human-made disasters, migration, urban development, cities, and informal settlements.
