🌍 UCV hosts two EU-CONEXUS BIPs addressing cont 🌍 UCV hosts two EU-CONEXUS BIPs addressing contemporary social challenges 🎯 Throughout July, the @universidadcatolicavalencia welcomed 44 students from the 9 universities of the EU-CONEXUS Alliance for two Blended Intensive Programmes (BIPs) — unique learning experiences that went far beyond the classroom. These programmes were not only about tackling real-world challenges like 🧠 disaster resilience and 🏘️ sustainable coastal living — they were also about building a common identity as EU-CONEXUS students, strengthening the sense of belonging to a European and intercultural academic community. In “Psychology in Disaster Management”, participants explored emotional and social recovery in the face of emergencies, including real cases like the DANA storm in Valencia. In “Living on the Coast”, students analysed housing and urban challenges in fast-changing coastal cities like Valencia 🌊🏙️. Through a mix of virtual and in-person sessions, teamwork across borders, field visits, testimonies and cultural exchanges, these BIPs became a space where students not only learned — they connected, shared, and grew as part of something bigger. #UCVinternational #BIP #BlendedIntensiveProgramme #IamSTUDENT #Psychology #Housing #challenges #euconexus #europeanuniversities
🥳🌊 Our partner, @klaipedauniversity , once a 🥳🌊 Our partner, @klaipedauniversity , once again took part in the annual Sea Festival parade held in Klaipėda, Lithuania, this year stepping forward under the theme “This is how the sea sounds.” The university community carried a message close to EU-CONEXUS: for them, the sea is not only the crash of waves, the cry of seagulls, or the melody of summer holidays. 💡 It is a source of inspiration and science – a world full of life that connects ideas, continents, and people. A world that, when truly listened to, does not sound louder, but deeper. 🥰 #EUCONEXUS #KlaipedaUniversity #SeaFestival #SeaFestivalParade #Sustainability
