The Standing Group on International Relations is a European ECPR broad-based Standing Group where IR specialists from different sectors of activity - universities, independent research institutes and public administration - are brought together to promote scholarly activities.
The SGIR is led by a Steering Committee which is elected every 3 years. The main activities of the SGIR range from organising major conferences, summer schools and publishing books and journals and maintaining a website and mailing list.

This year’s theme is “Conflicts in Europe – Europe in Conflicts”. The EIRSS is organised on behalf of the ECPR-Standing Group on International Relations. Its participants are primarily doctoral students from across Europe. The deadline for applications is 31 January 2010.
