Given the wide range of disciplinary and regional interests of LUC Faculty and Research Fellows, the centre is always interested in establishing collaborative research projects or jointly hosting conferences, visiting speakers etc.

Institutions interested in research cooperation with LUC should contact our centre's manager, Esther Truijen, in the first instance.

Leiden University and the Royal Academy of Art, Design, Music and Dance in The Hague (the Royal Conservatoire and the Royal Academy of Arts) founded the Academy of Creative and Performing Arts in December 2001. The Academy aims to bring the arts and academic disciplines together by creating a new programme that does justice to both elements.

LUC The Hague is excited about beginning a partnership with the Academy, not only to support its highly talented students in their pursuit of performance-excellence, but also as a way to further an educational and research agenda that recognizes performance as a vital medium of social and political expression.

LUC is delighted to be able to annouce a partnership with the ICCT (www.icct.nl), which opens the door for cutting-edge collaborations on timely issues of terrorism and counter-terrorism in today's world.

The 'International Centre for Counter-Terrorism (ICCT) – The Hague' is an independent knowledge centre that focuses on information creation, collation and dissemination pertaining to the preventative and international legal aspects of counter-terrorism. The core of ICCT’s work centres on themes such as de- and counter-radicalisation, human rights, impunity, the rule of law and communication in relation to counter-terrorism. Functioning as a nucleus within the international counter-terrorism network, ICCT – The Hague endeavours to connect academics, policymakers and practitioners by providing a platform for productive collaboration, practical research, exchange of expertise and analysis of relevant scholarly findings.

LUC is proud and excited to be able to announce its collaborations with the Grotius Centre for International Legal Studies (www.grotiuscentre.org), which is also based in The Hague. The partnership reflects our common concerns for questions of international law, order and justice, and we are excited about the opportunities that collaboration presents us.

LUC is honoured to be able to announce its first institutional research collaboration, with the Modern East Asia Research Centre of Leiden University (www.MEARC.eu). MEARC is a leading centre for the post-doctoral study of East Asia, with a special focus on ideas and institutions in the modern period. It concentrates on boundary crossing research in the fields of politics, philosophy, history, international relations and law. Hence, its interests intersect creatively with those of LUC, and it adds a deep, regional focus on an important part of the non-European world.
