The objective of this panel is to give an opportunity to first-year PhD students, in the field of Religion and Politics, to discuss their research projects during such an international conference. The 2019 EuARe Annual Conference, in fact, could be a place for them to meet other PhD students at the beginning of their research experience as well as early-career and distinguished scholars working in the same fields. It does not happen very often that first-year PhD students are given a chance to address such a varied network of experts and receive their feedback. The aim is not really for them to explain the (expected) results of their research, it is rather to present their new projects and the methodologies they are planning to adopt throughout their postgraduate studies.
