Residency is an event that brings together MESEC alums to work together and enjoy the lovely scenery of Corsica. We invite the members of the MESEC community to use the time and space at the Residency to work on collaborative projects, discuss, develop ideas, write, ponder, and create together. The Residency is also the time to rekindle the connections from past MESEC events, meet other MESEC alums, form new collaborations, and stay in touch with the wider MESEC community.

Unlike other events, there are only a few scheduled activities during the Residency. We cook together in teams and share meals together. Each day in the late afternoon we host MESEC Lab meetings, where participants can give short presentations of their projects or lead short-format discussions. We organize elective tutorials, one-on-one sessions, career sessions and other activities for those who find it relevant. Apart from that, the Residency offers its participants the time and space needed for the development of projects, focus, and exchange.

The Residency is open to anyone who has previously attended a MESEC event. In addition, the applications are extended to a limited number of external participants. Anyone who is interested in MESEC and would benefit from the Residency but has not been part of a MESEC event before can apply for the Residency through a separate application form for external applicants. If you would like to apply as an external applicant, or you are a MESEC member and would like to recommend an external applicant, please email us at info@mesec.co for more details.
