Between 26th June 2023 and 30th June 2023, I attended the 12th ITER International

School in Aix-en-Provence, France. This summer school focused on the topic of "The

Impact and Consequences of Energetic Particles on Fusion Plasma". Students from all

over Europe and also from other continents participated in this event, so it was a perfect

opportunity to meet young physicists from all over the world. Throughout the program,

we explored various aspects, including the influence on plasma stability, diagnosing

particle transport and loss, and understanding runaway electrons.

During the summer school, we had a variety of activities, including lectures,

discussions, and poster sessions. These activities helped us learn more about the

subject and connect with other participants. The knowledge shared and the interactions

with fellow attendees created a collaborative and supportive atmosphere.

One of the most memorable experiences of the summer school was the visit to the ITER

worksite in Cadarache. The opportunity to witness the ongoing construction of ITER

was truly remarkable.
