Publications
The CitDig results (knowledge created) will be publicized mainly by UNIO platforms in which papers, posts and videos will be published.
- UNIO Blog
- UNIO - EU Law Journal
CitDig intends to contribute to the community of EU law academics and to go further by discussing its research results in the official blog of UNIO entitled “Thinking & Debating Europe” – which adds a more interactive element. This blog goes beyond the academic circuit, taking EU legal discussions and debates to the wider population of non-legally trained EU citizens.
