Together, they explored how students across European University alliances can develop a genuine sense of belonging and proudly identify with their networks. They also presented the Student Identity Building Blocks Canvas, a methodology created within the EU-CONEXUS #IamSTUDENT project to help alliances strengthen student engagement. Thank you to everyone who joined the discussion and shared their experience of building a shared European student identity. #EAIE2025 #EUCONEXUS #EuropeanUniversities #StudentIdentity #IamSTUDENT #HigherEducation #Gothenburg

Today, ten students from Rostock (Germany) and Klaipฤ—da (Lithuania) set off aboard the Universitas for an exciting Baltic Sea journey. Over the next days, they will sail via Bornholm and Grรถnhรถgen to Klaipฤ—da, where an international conference and exchange await. On 24 September, the crew will return to Rostock. โš“๏ธ On board, the students are not just sailors - they are citizen scientists. Using a compact sensor unit, they will measure temperature, oxygen levels, and other environmental parameters, contributing to long-term Baltic Sea research alongside IOW โ€“ Leibniz Institute for Baltic Sea Research.๐Ÿ”ฌ๐ŸŒŠ With moderate winds and calm seas forecasted, the first days promise perfect conditions to combine teamwork, adventure, and hands-on science. Local radio NDR was on site yesterday to learn about the project and report on the start of the journey โœจ Follow their journey in our Instagram stories over the next two weeks and see science in action at sea! #EUCONEXUS #CitizenScience #BalticSea #StudentProject #SailingScience #europeanuniversities
