About the FDEF

The University of Luxembourg is an international research university with a distinctly multilingual and interdisciplinary character.

The Faculty of Law, Economics and Finance (FDEF) at the University of Luxembourg offers a unique academic and research environment.
Rooted in Luxembourg but with a European and international outlook,
teaching and research benefit from the proximity of the European institutions, Luxembourg's leading international financial centre and its vibrant business community. Institutional and private sector partnerships, sponsored Chairs and a growing network of international partner universities make the FDEF a dynamic academic hub at the heart of Europe.

Your role

The research fellowship is integrated into the LawMode research project, which is supervised and coordinated by the University of Luxembourg and led by Prof. Dr. Stefan Braum, Professor in European Criminal Law, Criminal Procedures, Criminology and Philosophy of Law at the University of Luxembourg.

Therefore, in the context of Lao PDR, this research fellowship enables in-depth research into important topics for the country's development, such as climate protection, poverty eradication, access to justice, law enforcement, and transparency.
