Fostering the next generation of researchers is a cornerstone of IZA's mission. The IZA Summer School provides an unparalleled opportunity for PhD students to gain insights from leading international researchers on cutting-edge advancements in their fields. It's a vibrant platform for discussing research, interacting with faculty, and building relationships with fellow students.

In 2024, the IZA Summer School celebrated its 25th anniversary. After the closure of the local IZA Institute in Bonn, this flagship event is continuted by the IZA Network at LISER with the IZA@LISER Summer School.
