Welcome to 2018 Eastern Mediterranean Security Studies Program

For the last seven years Emmanuel College has been making the Eastern Mediterranean the classroom for a select group of students. The part of the world, which has been the cultural, historical, economic crossroads for millennia continues to be in the 21st century. In the next four weeks we are going to immerse ourselves into the region, by making the historic village of Alikianos, in western Crete, the fifth largest island in the Mediterranean, our home and base of studying the region.

By keeping this blog we will share our experience with each other and with a wider audience, as previous cohorts have. Sharing in the experience also helps better understand, as we reflect and hear from everyone else.

Enjoy the ride and invite others to come along in the next four weeks.
