The purpose of the visit to Bilbao was to introduce the Israeli consortium members to the University of Deusto’s summer school program in ESG Finance, develop theoretical and conceptual knowledge on the design and implementation of summer school frameworks in multicultural global and local contexts and to interpret and discuss academic and practical aspects of establishing short-term programs on Sustainable Finance.

The IFI project is coordinated at Sapir by Dr. Amit Marantz Gal, Head of Academic Internationalization.
