26-27 September, Palermo – The 3rd Mediterranean Student Summit will bring together Higher Education students from different backgrounds and from both shores of the Mediterranean to foster intercultural dialogue and work together on common challenges. The event is jointly organized with UNIMED, the Mediterranean Universities Union, and ESN, the Erasmus Student Network. This edition of the event will gather from 30 to 35 students and will be an opportunity for them to explore and invest in the international dimension of their studies.
The event will revolve around five interlinked topics: improving intercultural dialogue and student-led internationalisation in the Mediterranean; improving leadership and networking competencies; creating a Mediterranean Erasmus Generation – how to connect the region through student mobility and international friendship; building the University of the future in the Mediterranean; drafting recommendations to make the students’ voice heard. Thanks to the preliminary online sessions and the Summit’s working sessions, students will be guided to identify, define and write recommendations on some challenges jointly identified by ESN and UNIMED.
