From 16-20 December 2024, the Huizinga Institute organises a Writing Retreat, taking place at the Abdij van Berne in Heeswijk Dinther. The week is guided by Dr Erika Kuijpers. During this Writing Retreat, you will have time to write in the relaxing setting of the monastery, meet and exchange experiences with fellow PhD-members, and follow workshops to strengthen your academic writing skills.
The Huizinga Institutes can accommodate 10 Huizinga Institute PhD candidates in this retreat. Participants are offered 4 nights of accommodation in Heeswijk Dinther (basic single rooms, private bathrooms), including all meals, for an attendance fee of €100,-. After registration, participants receive a payment link.
Once the course is fully booked, you will be added to the waiting list. Please note that the system doesn’t process registrations in realtime, so your spot is not confirmed until you receive a confirmation e-mail.
