Become a CASE Expert
CASE research and technical assistance projects are carried out by Warsaw-based scholars, as well as by a network of experts from across Europe, the Commonwealth of Independent States, North America and beyond. These experts usually have full-time positions in academia, government and/or the private and non-profit sectors, while working with CASE on a project-by-project basis.
