As every year, the @univlarochelle Green Party welcomed students with a fun and festive atmosphere, giving them the chance to discover all the services supporting their student life.

๐Ÿ‘‰ The EU-CONEXUS team joined the event with a geography game about our partner universitiesโ€™ countries, a playful way to present the many opportunities offered by the alliance: mobility, internships, projects, and international experiences

๐Ÿ‘ Special thanks to @ayadaac, student and EU-CONEXUS ambassador, for being part of our stand! Last spring, she took part in the EU-CONEXUS Festival in Limassol (Cyprus), a great example of the international experiences our students can enjoy.

๐Ÿ’š A great start to the academic year, full of discoveries, encounters, and a true European spirit!

Yesterday, Neringa Narbutiene, Institutional Coordinator at @universidadcatolicavalencia , joined Hanna Leonhard (@ureka_eu ) and Giovanni Andriolo (@universitasmontium ) to co-host the World Cafรฉ session โ€œCo-creating a shared student identity within EUI alliancesโ€ at the @theeaie Annual Conference in Gothenburg.

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.
