The Swiss Centre of Irish Studies @ the Zurich James Joyce Foundation

 

The Swiss Centre of Irish Studies @ the Zurich James Joyce Foundation (SCIS-ZJJF) was established on May 1, 2019 and aims to:

         - reflect and strengthen the unique role of the Zurich James Joyce Foundation as a cultural landmark and place of research of international importance;

         - increase the visibility of Irish Studies at Swiss universities and beyond;

        - promote interdisciplinary collaborations within Switzerland, between individual scholars as well as with partner institutions (e.g. the world-renowned Stiftsbibliothek in St. Gallen);

        - facilitate scholarly exchange with members of European networks, as well as academics working across the globe.

In July 2019, the Swiss Centre of Irish Studies @ the Zurich James Joyce Foundation was accepted as a member of the European Federation of Associations and Centres of Irish Studies (EFACIS).
